We study the multiple-vehicle collision when a vehicle changes from the first lane to the second lane on a two-lane highway. If a vehicle with high (low) speed on the first lane enters into the second lane, it may crash into the forward (rear) vehicle on the second lane and the crash may induce...

We present the stochastic model for queueing at two tollgates with line changing of vehicles to take into account fluctuating inflow and outflow. We study the jam formation and its transition in front of two tollgates on a highway. The line changing between two queues of vehicles has an...

We study the multiple-vehicle collision when a vehicle decelerates suddenly in a single-lane traffic flow. The extended optimal velocity model is used for the vehicular motion to take into account the relative velocity. If a vehicle slows down suddenly and the following vehicle does not...

A traffic model is presented to study the segregation of cars on a multilane highway. When a fast (slow) car overtakes (is overtaken by) a slow (fast) car, the fast (slow) car shifts to the outer (inner) lane. The traffic kinetics on a multilane highway is described in terms of Boltzmann-like...

A deterministic cellular automaton model is presented to simulate the traffic jam induced by a car accident in a two-lane roadway. We study the traffic flow of the system when the translation invariance is broken by the insertion of a blockage which is induced by a car accident in the first...

We study the bus delay and the passenger behaviour on a bus route by the use of the bus route model. The time-headway model of the bus route is extended to take into account the passengers on buses. The bus delay relates with the number of passengers on buses. It is shown that the dynamical...

We present a chemical-reaction model to describe the Mexican wave (La Ola) in football stadia. The spectator's action is described in terms of chemical reactions. The model is governed by three reaction rates k1,k2, and k3. We study the nonlinear waves on one- and two-dimensional lattices. The...

A two-lane traffic model is presented to investigate traffic jams induced by a car accident. The model is an extension one of the optimal velocity model taking into account lane changing in the open flow. We study the jammed states and the fine structures of jams. It is shown that there are two...

We study the vehicular traffic through a sequence of traffic lights on a highway, where signals turn on and off periodically with the green-wave strategy. We present the dynamical model of vehicular traffic controlled by green-wave signals, where a vehicle is inhibited to pass other vehicles....

We study the dynamic behavior of vehicular traffic in a two-route system with a series of signals (traffic lights) at low density where the number of signals on route A is different from that on route B. We investigate the dependence of the tour time on the route for some strategies of signal...
