liiklusvoo
Liiklusvoo (translated as traffic flow) is a concept in transportation engineering that describes how vehicles move along a road or network. It encompasses the rate at which vehicles pass a given point, the average speed of those vehicles, and how densely the road is used. In the literature, three interrelated variables are standard: flow (q), speed (v), and density (k). Flow is typically measured in vehicles per hour, speed in kilometers per hour, and density in vehicles per kilometer. The fundamental relationship is often written as q = v × k, linking how fast traffic travels to how many vehicles occupy a segment of roadway.
The behavior of liiklusvoo is summarized in the fundamental diagram, which shows how flow increases with density
Measurement and modeling of liiklusvoo use macroscopic approaches (aggregated quantities like q, v, k) and microscopic
