Experimental comparison of traffic flow models on traffic data

Horňák, Ivan, Přikryl, Jan (2015)

Programs and Algorithms of Numerical Mathematics

Despite their deficiencies, continuous second-order traffic flow models are still commonly used to derive discrete-time models that help traffic engineers to model and predict traffic oflow behaviour on highways. We brie fly overview the development of traffic flow theory based on continuous flow-density models of Lighthill-Whitham-Richards (LWR) type, that lead to the second-order model of Aw-Rascle. We will then concentrate on widely-adopted discrete approximation to the LWR model by Daganzo's...

Explicit difference schemes for nonlinear differential functional parabolic equations with time dependent coefficients-convergence analysis

A. Poliński (2006)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

We study the initial-value problem for parabolic equations with time dependent coefficients and with nonlinear and nonlocal right-hand sides. Nonlocal terms appear in the unknown function and its gradient. We analyze convergence of explicit finite difference schemes by means of discrete fundamental solutions.

Finite difference operators from moving least squares interpolation

Hennadiy Netuzhylov, Thomas Sonar, Warisa Yomsatieankul (2007)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

In a foregoing paper [Sonar, ESAIM: M2AN39 (2005) 883–908] we analyzed the Interpolating Moving Least Squares (IMLS) method due to Lancaster and Šalkauskas with respect to its approximation powers and derived finite difference expressions for the derivatives. In this sequel we follow a completely different approach to the IMLS method given by Kunle [Dissertation (2001)]. As a typical problem with IMLS method we address the question of getting admissible results at the boundary by introducing “ghost...
