    The Godunov method for a 2-phase model

    No full text
    Abstract We consider the Godunov numerical method to the phase-transition trafic model, proposed in [1], by Colombo, Marcellini, and Rascle. Numerical tests are shown to prove the validity of the method. Moreover we highlight the differences between such model and the one proposed in [2], by Blandin, Work, Goatin, Piccoli, and Bayen. </jats:p

    AUTONOMOUS VEHICLES DRIVING TRAFFIC: THE CAUCHY PROBLEM*

    No full text
    This paper deals with the Cauchy problem for a PDE-ODE model, where a system of two conservation laws, namely the Two-Phase macroscopic model proposed in [Rinaldo M. Colombo, Francesca Marcellini, and Michel Rascle, SIAM J. Appl. Math., 70(7):2652–2666, 2010], is coupled with an ordinary differential equation describing the trajectory of an autonomous vehicle (AV), which aims to control the traffic flow. Under suitable assumptions, we prove a global-in-time existence result
