Abstract
A multiple look-ahead model is extended to take into account the reaction-time delay of drivers. The stability condition of this model is obtained by using the linear stability theory. Through nonlinear analysis, the Korteweg–de Vries (KdV) equation near the neutral stability line and the modified KdV (mKdV) equation near the critical point are derived. Both the analytical and simulation results demonstrate that the stabilization of traffic flow is weakened with increasing the reaction-time delay of drivers, and multiple look-ahead consideration could partially remedy this unfavorable effect.
