SUMMARY:On traffic modeling and the Braess paradox - Helge Holden (Norwegi
 an University of Science and Technology)

DESCRIPTION:We will discuss models for vehicular traffic flow on networks.
  The models include both the Lighthill-Whitham-Richards (LWR) model and Fo
 llow-the-Leader (FtL) models.  The emphasis will be on the Braess paradox 
 in which adding a road to a traffic network can make travel times worse fo
 r all drivers. In addition we will present a novel proof how FtL models ap
 proximate the LWR model in case of heavy traffic<br><br><br><br>
