Estimating Macroscopic Volume Delay Functions with the Traffic Density Derived from Measured Speeds and Flows by Rafał Kucharski, Arkadiusz Drabicki

“…Contrary to typical VDF estimation methods it allows estimating speeds also for hypercritical traffic conditions, when both speeds and flow drop due to congestion (high density of traffic flow). We employ the well-known hydrodynamic relation of fundamental diagram to derive the so-called quasi-density from measured time-mean speeds and flows. …”
