All concepts →For a given traffic stream, the speed-density relationship is given as: $v = v_o \ln \left(\frac{k_j}{k}\right)$ where $v$ is the mean speed (in km/h), and $k$ is the density (in v...
The speed-density relation on a one-way, single lane road is shown in the figure, where speed u is in km/hour and density k is in vehicles/km. The maximum flow (in vehicles/hour) o...
The free flow speed of a highway is 100 km/h and its capacity is 4000 vehicle/h. Assume speed density relation is linear. For a traffic volume of 2000 vehicle/h, choose all the pos...
The free mean speed is 60 km/hr on a given road. The average space headway at jam density on this road is 8 m. For a linear speed-density relationship, the maximum flow (in veh/hr/...
A plot of speed-density relationship (linear) of two roads (Road A and Road B) is shown in the figure. If the capacity of Road A is $C_A$ and the capacity of Road B is $C_B$, what...
On a road, the speed - density relationship of a traffic stream is given by u=70-0.7k (where speed, u, is in km/h and density, k, is in veh/km). At the capacity condition, the aver...
Average free flow speed and the jam density observed on a road stretch are 60 km/h and 120 vehicles/km, respectively. For a linear speed-density relationship, the maximum flow on t...
The speed-density relationship for a road section is shown in the figure. The shape of the flow-density relationship is
