Course Overview
Commuters in the Metros and other large cities face a lot of traffic congestion during their daily trips to their workplace or home. The development of infrastructure through the expansion of roads does not prove to be a long-lasting remedy to curb this urban congestion. This course of Intro to Traffic Flow Modeling and Intelligent Transport Systems focuses on understanding the congestion of the traffic and exploring new ways to improve commuters' transit or mobility through schemes of traffic management.
The course Intro to Traffic Flow Modeling and Intelligent Transport Systems introduces the fundamentals of traffic flow theory while describing different traffic flow models at micro and macro levels. This course introduces network-level aggregation modelling and control approaches based on the concept of Macroscopic Fundamental Design (MFD). The course also teaches advanced schemes for traffic management such as ramp metering, adaptive traffic signal control, variable limits of speed, etc. The course also introduces user equilibrium analysis through the application of the choice of departure and route timings. The course offers related reading material, real data sets, and exercises. The students can audit the programme free of cost and get a limited duration of access. They can also join the course by paying the fee and access it for an unlimited period.
