Welcome to the home page of the Committee on Traffic Flow Theory and Characteristics.
This
committee is concerned with the development, validation, and dissemination
of theoretical, experimental, and applied research on traffic flow theory
and traffic flow characteristics and the determination of the relationship
of traffic flow theory and traffic flow characteristics to the planning,
design and operation of transportation systems.
SimSub: Our committee is one of seven committees to jointly sponsor the Simulation Sub-Committee AHB45(1):
| Committee | Chair | SimSub Liaison | |
| AHB45 | Traffic Flow Theory and Characteristics | R. Bertini | G. List, Chair |
| AHB40 | Highway Capacity and Quality of Service | L. Elefteriadou | A. Skabardonis |
| AHB20 | Freeway Operations | P. Masters | P. Prevedouros |
| AHB25 | Traffic Signal Systems | L. Head | B. Park |
| ADB30 | Transportation Network Modeling | S. Peeta | H. Liu |
| AHB55 | Work Zone Traffic Control | G. Ullman | R. Benekohal |
| ADC20 | Transportation and Air Quality | J. Lin | Y. Chiu |
| Historic Publications: Since 1963 the Committee on Traffic Flow Theory and Characteristics (and its predecessor committees) have contributed 497 papers to 57 issues of the Transportation Research Record (previously the Highway Research Record). Please take a look at this record over the past 49 years by following the links. Thanks to Ethan Xuan of U.C. Berkeley for this effort. We invite your comments on these papers—how have they influenced research or practice? Do you cite them? |
| Traffic Flow Webinars: Since 2010 we have hosted more than 30 Traffic Flow Theory and Characteristics Webinars. From 2010-2011, this was done in partnership with the TrafficLab at Georgia Tech (25 archived webinars are here). You can join the Traffic Flow Webinar Google Group to make sure you are notified and also be sure to follow us on Facebook. If you have a topic to suggest or you would like to present a webinar, please contact us. |
2013 TRB Annual Meeting: Click here for a quick summary of our meetings, sessions, and workshops to be held during the TRB Annual Meeting, to be held January 13-17, 2013 in Washington, D.C.
Greenshields Prize: The 2012 Greenshields Prize will be presented at the TRB Annual Meeting on January 15, 2013 in Washington DC!
TRB Traffic Flow Theory and Characteristics Information Resource Center: TRB has launched new committee-specific web portals, take a look and let us know what you think!
ISTTT 20: The 20th International Symposium on Transportation and Traffic Theory will be held at the Grand Hotel Huis ter Duin in Noordwijk, the Netherlands, from July 17-19, 2013. The Symposium is hosted by the Delft University of Technology. We will hold a short summer meeting at the Symposium.
We look forward to your participation and involvement with this committee.
Sincerely,
Robert L. Bertini,
