    There are two main types of traffic flow models: microscopic models which describe the motion and interactions of individual vehicles, and macroscopic models which describe the relationship between overall traffic flow, speed, and density on a roadway. Microscopic models focus on mobility at the individual vehicle level while macroscopic approaches consider aggregate road flow properties accounting for general flow, speed, and density.

    ONE ANOTHER.

    *MICROSCOPIC MOBILITY MODELS FOCUS ON THE MOBILITY OF EACH INDIVIDUAL


    VEHICLE.

    MACROSCOPIC

    DESCRIBES THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN FLOW, SPEED, AND DENSITY.

    *MACROSCOPIC APPROACHES FOCUS ON THE COMPLETE ROAD FLOW TAKING INTO

    MICROSCOPIC AND MACROSCOPIC FLOW MODELS ARE RELATED TO ONE ANOTHER BY


    THE FACT THAT THE RECIPROCAL OF THE TIME HEADWAY IS THE AVERAGE FLOW RATE
    AND THE RECIPROCAL OF THE AVERAGE DISTANCE SEPARATION IS THE DENSITY.
