THEORY OF CONGESTED HIGHWAY TRAFFIC: EMPIRICAL FEATURES AND METHODS OF TRACING AND PREDICTION
This paper presents results of an empirical study of congested patterns at highway bottlenecks. These results allow finding predictable (reproducible and unique) features of the spatial-temporal structure of congested patterns and also allow making a classification of congested patterns. Also considered are some aspects of the three-phase traffic theory (free flow; synchronized flow; and wide moving jam).
