A STATISTICAL ANALYSIS OF SPEED-DENSITY HYPOTHESES. IN VEHICULAR TRAFFIC SCIENCE

Joseph S Drake, Joseph L. Schofer, Adolf D May

Open publisher page 26 citations

Abstract

In this work, a number of hypotheses proposed to describe the relationships between basic traffic stream characteristics are compared using a common set of data. The ability of the various functions to predict flow parameters over the range of operating conditions is evaluated using statistical techniques.
