Résumé / Abstract
The aim of this article is to study how the obstruction caused by slow vehicles (like trucks for example) on other ones can be modelled in a two-flow macroscopic model based on the Lighthill-Whitham-Richards (LWR) theory. This will be done by using the results of moving bottleneck models which describe the effect of a single slow vehicle on the rest of the flow. Keywords heterogeneous flow - slow vehicles - macroscopic traffic flow model.
