Abstract
Two kinds of Riemann solutions for the Aw-Rascle hydrodynamic traffic flow model with the logarithmic equation of state are explicitly obtained by using the combination between 1-rarefaction or 1-shock wave along with 2-contact discontinuity. The formation of vacuum state and delta shock wave is identified and analyzed when the perturbation parameter in the pressure term drops to zero, where the intrinsic cavitation and concentration phenomena are surveyed and explored concretely. Additionally, several numerical results displaying the formation process of vacuum state and delta shock wave are also presented by taking three different perturbation parameters for comparison.
