Abstract

Incorporating the ITS in traffic flow, two lattice hydrodynamic models considering the following lattice are proposed to study the influence of the following lattice on traffic flow stability. The results from the linear stability theory show that considering the following lattice could lead to the improvement of the traffic flow stability. The modified Korteweg-de Vries equations (the mKdV equation, for short) near the critical point are derived by using the nonlinear perturbation method to show that the traffic jam could be described by the kink-antikink soliton solutions for the mKdV equations.
