Chaos in Traffic Flow Based on LA Model
Abstract
Transportation System which is mainly consisted of moving people and vehicles is open, nonlinear, real-time, and multi-parameter. Traffic simulation and chaos movement states are studied based on car-following model. Firstly, LA model was presented, that is the car-following model with a cubic additional term. It is nonlinear. Then Runge-Kutta method was used to calculate of flow. Finally, the simulated traffic flow was generated with MATLAB based on the LA model. The flow was analysised by a combination of many chaos distinguishing methods. Simulation results are shown that there are chaos characteristics in the traffic flow which was derived by LA model.
