Proper positioning of ride-sourcing drivers may improve vacant travel times, waiting times,
and matching opportunities. Herein, we evaluate the potential repositioning response of …

Controlling traffic in large-scale urban road networks is a challenging problem. Aggregated
dynamical models, based on the macroscopic fundamental diagram (MFD) of urban traffic …

This paper examines the effects of hypercongestion mitigation by perimeter control and the
introduction of autonomous vehicles on the spatial structures of cities. By incorporating a …

To improve the performance of systems, optimization has been the prevailing approach in
the past. However, the approach faces challenges when multiple goals shall be …

In this work, we propose a joint route guidance and demand management strategy for multi-
region networks with macroscopic traffic dynamics. Route guidance is used to identify the …

Since the introduction of the Macroscopic Fundamental Diagram (MFD), many traffic control
strategies and algorithms have been developed to implement MFD-based perimeter control …

Abstract Macroscopic Fundamental Diagrams (MFDs) are valuable for designing and
evaluating network-wide traffic management schemes. Since obtaining empirical MFDs can …

Effective traffic control methods have great potential in alleviating network congestion.
Particularly, in an urban network consisting of heterogeneous roads (eg, freeways and …

Macroscopic fundamental diagrams (MFDs) have been widely adopted to model the traffic
flow of large-scale urban networks. Coupling perimeter control and regional route guidance …

The purpose of perimeter control is to regulate the transfer flow between the perimeters of
the urban traffic network, so that the vehicle aggregation in each region is maintained at a …
