摘要: In this paper, a multi-class traffic flow model as an extension of the Lighthill, Whitham and Richards (LWR) with heterogeneous drivers is formulated. The takes into account distribution characterized by their choice speeds in stream, which models dynamic behavior users whereby faster vehicles could overtake slower ones under uncongested condition well congested (though less easily), would slow down ones. Numerical simulations show that can predict many puzzling phenomena such two-capacity (or reverse-lambda) regimes occurred fundamental diagram, hysteresis platoon dispersion.
