Question-4: Speed-flow-density relationships of a particular site has resulted in the model U = 68.3(1-10) Where U is the speed (mi/hr), and K is the density (veh/hr/lane) Find the following i. Free flow speed and jam density ii. Derive the equation depicting relationship between flow and density Derive the equation depicting relationship between speed and flow iv. Show the values of free-flow speed, jam density and capacity graphically
Problem 2. (15 pts) Find the relationship between speed and density for a highway with a jam density between 17:5 and 260 pm and a free flow speed of 50 and 65 mph (by increment of 5 mph). (Please refer to Problem 3 for a solution approach to this problem.) Determine the two concentrations achieved at flow value of 1,700 vph. (10 pts) Determine as well the capacity of the facility. (5 pt)
Five-minute average speed in km/h and flow rate in veh/h during 12 hours were collected from a section of the eastbound lanes of Highway 401 in Toronto. The collected data were plotted to form the scatter diagram shown in the figure below. A curve was drawn to describe the general relationship between speed and flow rate q as shown in the figure. 120 300 Speed km/h 60 1000 Flow Rate vel (a) From the above speed-flow rate curve, determine the...
2. If the relationship between speed and density is linear, mathematically approve that the optimal speed is half of the free flow speed and optimal density is half of the jam dencity We have Um-0.5Uf, Km-0,5 Kjam
Traffic on a three-lane freeway observes a triangular flow-density relationship with free-flow speed vf=100km/h, capacity c=2000veh/h/lane, jam density kj=150veh/km/lane. Flow in the freeway from upstream is 5000veh/h, while the ramp flow is negligible (almost zero).At 9:45am, an accident occurs at point A. The vehicles involved close one lane of traffic (total capacity reduces to 4000veh/h) for 15min and afterwards the scene is clear (capacity returns to 6000veh/h). Lucy enters the freeway via the ramp at point B at 10:00am. Distance...
