05. Moving bottleneck and queuing
In this lecture two topics are covered, moving bottlenecks and queuing models. After a short introduction on what moving bottlenecks are, two examples are given. In the first example a moving bottleneck without passing opportunities is elaborated. This can for instance be a slow tractor on a one lane road. The second example shows a moving bottleneck with a passing opportunities, so for instance a tractor on a two lane road. Both examples are not on the slides but explained on the blackboard (see collegerama).
Also read paragraph 8.5 about moving bottlenecks, paragraph 2.6 about cumulative curves and chapter 7 about queuing analysis in the reader..
