Mathematics Applied in Transport and Traffic Systems
The conference Mathematics Applied in Transport and Traffic Systems follows on earlier workshops on the Mathematical Foundations of Traffic. Delft University of Technology (TU Delft) is delighted to host this edition of this 3-day-workshop.
The aim of this workshop is to bring together two communities which can mutually benefit from each others expertise. As such, we invite contributions of both communities on the development of models featuring transport and traffic systems.
By means of a set of keynote presentations and 3 days of lecture sessions we will explore the current issues in depth. Furthermore, interactive workshops will be organised in which traffic engineers and mathematicians alike will be challenged to discover the ‘other’ research fields.
MATTS 2018 covers, but is not limited to, the following topics:
- Dynamic systems
- Traffic flow theory
- Network fundamental diagrams
- Macroscopic modelling of pedestrians
- Hyperbolic conservation laws
- Network modelling
- Stochastic models
- Computational methods
- Modelling environmental impacts
- Automated vehicles
- Coupling of dynamics at vehicle and road scale
