ABSTRACT

Simulating traffic flows is an urgent task when choosing the optimal movement scheme of vehicles along the road network. One of the problems affecting the convenience of moving on the road network is road accidents. The article considers the problem of simulating the movement of vehicles when bypassing the scene of a traffic accident. A mathematical model reflecting the movement of motor vehicles in a dense traffic flow has been developed in the case when traffic along one of the lanes is blocked as a result of a traffic accident or repair work. The time intervals between cars in each lane are assumed to be subordinate to Erlang's law. The scene of the incident is presented as a queuing system. Using the method of pseudo-states and Markov chains, the author calculated the movement characteristics of the vehicles near the scene of a traffic accident. Simulating the movement of traffic flows near the accident sites allows predicting the delays caused by vehicles, and adjusting the optimal traffic management schemes.
