Traffic flow theory control Introduction to modern traffic flow theory and control

This book is compiled by Professor Boris Kemer, a top expert in the field of transportation theory. Professor Botis Kemer was born in Moscow. He immigrated to Germany in 1992 and worked for Daimler AG. From 1996 to 2002, he proposed the extremely important three-phase traffic theory in modern traffic flow theory. The whole book is a comprehensive description of the three-phase traffic theory. This theory focuses on how to explain the physical principles of traffic break.down on highways and the nature of traffic jams. The phase here is defined as a certain space-time state. . Based on this theory, the book explains the phenomenon of traffic diversion and congestion, which is consistent with the actual measurement results to a certain extent. In addition, the author compares three-phase traffic theory with early traffic flow theory, demonstrating and explaining why early transportation engineering-based theory, research, and teaching cannot adequately describe actual measured traffic movements. Finally, the high-speed power traffic control method under this theoretical framework is described, which provides a new research basis for traffic engineering, especially highway traffic management and complex system dynamics research in traffic flow and transportation networks.

The whole book describes in detail how Professor Kemer and his research team analyzed highway data and how to develop relevant theories. The book clearly expresses relevant concepts through pictures, and the glossary of professional terms makes it easier for graduate students majoring in physics, mathematics, and engineering to understand the content of the book. The book has 13 chapters. In addition to the introduction of Chapter 1 and the conclusion and outlook of Chapter 13, it is divided into two parts, specifically: Part One, Three-Phase Traffic Theory, including Chapters 2-7: 2. Three Definition of phase traffic theory; 3. Traffic transfer bottleneck; 4. Limited number of highways with free flow capacity at the bottleneck; 5. Moving congestion accidents; 6. Basic assumptions and conditions of three-phase traffic theory; 7. Space-time traffic congestion diagram . Part 2, the influence of three-phase traffic theory on transportation engineering, including Chapters 8-12: 8. Introduction to Part 2 - Introduction to three-phase traffic theory; 9. Expressway traffic control based on three-phase traffic theory; 10. Early theories based on transportation engineering_basic diagram method; 11. Three-phase traffic flow model; 12. The connection between three-phase traffic theory and basic diagram traffic flow modeling method.

This book is suitable for students, engineers and teachers in the field of transportation systems and complex power systems.
