In this paper, the mKdV equations of four different versions of lattice hydrodynamic models, which describe the kink-antikink soliton waves are derived by nonlinear analysis. Furthermore, the general solution is given, which is applied to solving a new model -- the lattice hydrodynamic model with bidirectional pedestrian flow. The result shows that this general solution is consistent with that given by previous work.展开更多

A control signal concluding the velocity differences of the two vehicles in front is put forward. The condition under which the traffic jam can be contained is analyzed. The results axe compared with that presented by Konishi et al [Phys. Rev. 1999 E 60 4000-4007]. The simulation results show that the temporal behavior obtained by our method is better than that by the Konishi＇s et al. method, although both the methods could suppress the traffic jam. The simulation results are consistent with the theoretical analysis.展开更多
