Theoretical analysis of bifurcations in a microscopic traffic model accounting for optimal velocity

    In this paper, a modified microscopic traffic flow model accounting for the optimal velocity has been proposed. Different with previous models, drivers’ response ability and the maximum of accelerations are considered in the term of the optimal velocity. The effect of parameters in the term of the optimal velocity on bifurcations in the rotary traffic is studied here. Besides, the evolvement of bifurcations in the system is calculated by performing numerical simulation experiments. Moreover, the linear stability analysis of the proposed model is presented.
