We represent a jamming transition as a result of the spontaneous deviations of headway and velocity that is caused by the acceleration/braking rate to be higher than the critical value. The stationary values of headway and velocity deviations, and time of acceleration/braking are derived as functions of control parameter (time needed for car to take the characteristic velocity).", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2000-04-05T12:32:13.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "jamming transition", "traffic flow", "synergetic theory", "velocity deviations", "stationary values" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
