2009 SCAIM Seminar - 02

  • Date: 02/03/2009
Lecturer(s):
Benedetto Piccoli (IAC Rome)
Location: 

University of British Columbia

Topic: 

Traffic flow on networks

Description: 

Recent results proposed a systematic use of conservation laws models on networks for urban vehicular traffic. We first describe modelling issues and relative analysis. Then we discuss numerics and challenges raising in real cases, addressing convergence, data sources and computational costs. Similar models are illustrated for the case of data networks and supply chains. Finally, ode-pde systems for single vehicle trajectory are presented.

Schedule:
