Article
Full-text available
The development of Advanced Traveler Information Systems (ATIS) with en-route navigation systems has opened the door to new traffic regulation policies such as collective route guidance based on social costs, i.e. routes that minimize total travel time. However, a critical element for their efficiency is the compliance of travelers with route recom...

Flow limitation due to spillbacks between reservoirs in Macroscopic Fundamental Diagram (MFD) based approaches is still not fully understood. In a previous paper, we analyzed flow exchange properties and formulated new merging and diverging models, different from those previously proposed in the literature. However, both the latter and our approach...

In this paper, we propose a control and optimization framework to reduce network-wide emissions in an urban traffic network. The framework is comprised of two layers. The first layer (optimal green routing) predicts the optimal splitting coefficients for all Origin–Destination (OD) pairs crossing the city center or bypassing. As implementing optima...

Aggregated traffic flow models based on the Macroscopic Fundamental Diagram (MFD), also known as multi-reservoir or multi-region MFD models, have been developed for more than a decade for various applications. While being very appealing for simulating traffic dynamics at a city level, the outputs of these models were rarely confronted with real dat...
Article
In recent years, several perimeter control strategies have been proposed for traffic management in cities. The common factor found in these works is the use of Macroscopic Fundamental Diagram (MFD) models to describe the dynamics of the network and optimize traffic inside the perimeter by manipulating perimeter inflows. Perimeter gating control str...
Conference Paper
In this paper, we propose a model-based perimeter gating control approach to improve network-wide emissions in an urban traffic network. An accumulation-based Macroscopic Fundamental Diagram (MFD) model of a single reservoir city is developed to describe the evaluation of traffic flows in a network. Moreover, a path flow distribution scheme using D...
Article
This paper investigates how network and traffic heterogeneities influence the accuracy of a simulation based on the Macroscopic Fundamental Diagram (MFD). To this end, the MFD modeling of a simple grid network is compared to the outputs of a mesoscopic kinematic wave model simulating traffic in the same network. Heterogeneous distributions of deman...
Article
Full-text available
Large-scale traffic flow models based on the Network Macroscopic Fundamental Diagram (MFD) are usually grounded on the bathtub analogy and a conservation equation for vehicle accumulation inside a given urban area. Recent studies have proposed a different approach where the MFD defines the spatial mean speed that is shared by all vehicles in a regi...

Thesis
Full-text available
Congestion in urban areas has become a major issue in terms of economic, social or environmental impact. For short or mid term, using dynamic road traffic simulation can help analyzing and providing guidelines to optimization policies of existing infrastructures. Today, because of the complexity of transport systems, classical modeling tools are li...
Article
This paper extends a trip-based aggregate dynamic traffic model to account for on-street parking search. The trip-based approach for a road network defined as a reservoir characterizes the internal traffic states by a macroscopic fundamental diagram (MFD) in speed while individualizing all vehicle travel distances. This paper first investigates dis...
Article
Large-scale network modeling using the Macroscopic Fundamental Diagram (MFD) is widely based on the single-reservoir model, where the variation of the accumulation of circulating vehicles in the reservoir equals inflow minus outflow. However, inconsistent lags for information propagation between boundaries may be observed with this single accumulat...
Conference Paper
Over the past few years, the Macroscopic Fundamental Diagram (MFD) has gained a lot of attention. The idea was firstly introduced by Godfrey (1969), but its mathematical formulation is recent (Daganzo, 2007). Simulation (Geroliminis, 2007) and experimental studies (Gerolimins, 2008) have shown the capability of describing traffic physics at macrosc...
