Sample Chapter

The following is a sample chapter from the book:

Chapter 1:

The fundamental goal of traffic flow theory is to develop models that can accurately describe the movement of vehicles on roadways. These models can then be used to analyze and mitigate traffic congestion, as well as to design and operate transportation systems.

Traffic flow theory has a long history, dating back to the early days of the automobile. In the early 20th century, engineers began to develop simple models to describe the movement of vehicles on roadways. These models were based on the assumption that vehicles move in a continuous stream and that their behavior can be described by a set of differential equations.

In the years since, traffic flow theory has become increasingly sophisticated. Today, there are a wide variety of traffic flow models that can be used to describe the movement of vehicles on roadways. These models can be used to analyze and mitigate traffic congestion, as well as to design and operate transportation systems.
