Samenvatting
In this dissertation, a new continuum traffic flow model is proposed, describing the operations of multilane heterogeneous traffic. To this end, a new traffic flow theory is established. This theory is different from current continuum traffic flow theories in that it describes heterogeneously composed traffic as a collection of platoons moving along stochastic trajectories on the multilane infrastructural facility, rather than describing traffic by independently moving vehicular particles. This approach enables the description of the correlation between the vehicles necessary for a correct description of vehicular interaction. (A)
