We study the stability of a discontinuous Galerkin (DG) method applied to the numerical solution of traffic flow problems on networks. We discretize the Lighthill-Whitham-Richards equations on each road by DG. At traffic junctions, we consider two types of numerical fluxes that are based on Godunov’s numerical flux derived in a previous work of ours. These fluxes are easily constructible for any number of incoming and outgoing roads, respecting the drivers’ preferences. The analysis...
