Proceedings of the Ninth International Symposium on Transportation and Traffic Theory

This book introduces an approximative analysis to the Hydrodynamic Theory and presents the graphic construction, successive computation of the queue tail trajectory and a procedure. It compares the results from the approximative analysis with those from direct application of the Hydrodynamic Theory. The Ninth International Symposium on Transportation and Traffic Theory, held in the Netherlands in July 1984, follows the tradition of broad international information exchange that was developed at the eight previous symposia. Over the years the scope of the symposia has gradually widened to become both more international and more comprehensive than that of the earlier meetings. The Ninth Symposium continues this trend by including papers on a wide range of theoretical issues by leading members of the international research community.
