TL;DR
A new model of one-dimensional traffic flow using a coupled map lattice so as to represent the motion of a vehicle properly is proposed, and the maps are coupled to each other through the headway distance.
Abstract
We propose a new model of one-dimensional traffic flow using a coupled map lattice. In the model, each vehicle is assigned a map and changes its velocity according to it. A single map is designed so as to represent the motion of a vehicle properly, and the maps are coupled to each other through the headway distance. By simulating the model, we obtain a plot of the flow against the concentration similar to the observed data in real traffic flows. Realistic traffic jam regions are observed in space-time trajectories.

The theory of kinematic waves is applied to the problem of estimating how a ‘hump’, or region of increased concentration, will move along a crowded main road, and is applicable principally to traffic behaviour over a long stretch of road.

A simple model that describes traffic flow in two dimensions finds a sharp jamming transition that separates between the low-density dynamical phase in which all cars move at maximal speed and the high-density jammedphase in which they are all stopped.

One-dimensional traffic flow is simulated by a cellular-automaton-type discrete model, which shows a phase transition between a jam phase and a non-jam phase and by adding random perturbations finds a 1/f power spectrum in the jam phase, whereas a white noise is observed in the non- jam phase.

The characteristic properties of the traffic congestion in the proposed dynamical model are studied, especially the organization process and the stability of the structure of congestion, which turns out to be well described by plotting motions of vehicles in the phase space of velocity and headway.

The intersublattice relaxation rate is measured as a function of the temperature for the excitons arising from the 6 A 1 → 4 Ti(I) transition in MnF 2 and is found to be dominated by scattering with thermal magnons at temperatures above 10 K.
