Abstract

We consider continuum models for multilane traffic flows. These models are constituted by systems of balance laws, where the source terms take into account the inflow and the outflow of vehicles in each single lane. The flow is described through macroscopic quantities as the lane car densities, speeds and momenta; the number of equations governing the flow may change from lane to lane. The analytical properties of these models are our goal: we give a general framework where global existence of solutions can be proved. [DOI: 10.1685/CSC06056] About DOI
