Abstract:In this paper, an open boundaries traffic flow system is studied by taking into account the lateral interaction with spatial defects. For a random defects distribution, if the vehicles velocities are weakly correlated, the traffic phases can be predicted by considering the corresponding inflow and outflow functions. Conversely, if the vehicles velocities are strongly correlated, a phase segregation appears inside the system's bulk which induces the maximum current appearance. Such velocity correlation depends mainly on the defects densities and the probabilities of lateral deceleration. However, for a compact defects distribution, the traffic phases are predictable by using the inflow in the system beginning, the inflow entering the defects zone and the outflow function.
