Abstract

This paper presents a review and critical analysis of the mathematical literature concerning the modeling of vehicular traffic and crowd phenomena. The survey of models deals with the representation scales and the mathematical frameworks that are used for the modeling approach. The paper also considers the challenging objective of modeling complex systems consisting of large systems of individuals interacting in a nonlinear manner, where one of the modeling difficulties is the fact that these systems are difficult to model at a global level when based only on the description of the dynamics of individual elements. The review is concluded with a critical analysis focused on research perspectives that consider the development of a unified modeling strategy.
