Abstract

The problem of numerical estimation of the functionals of the solutions to a Boltzmann type nonlinear equation in the kinetic model of a vehicle traffic flow with separated acceleration is considered. The authors construct a second-kind integral equation for the original probabilistic model of a vehicle traffic flow, which is related to a linear N-particle model of the vehicle system evolution. Weighted Monte Carlo methods are proposed for the estimation of the functionals of the solution to the obtained equation. The practical suitability of this approach to the solution of traffic problems is demonstrated by numerical experiments. It should be noted that, in contrast to the previous papers, the authors do not use an artificial time step not included in the original traffic flow model.
