Generalized Speed-Density Models for Urban Freeways under Rainy Weather

Based on Shanghai elevated road traffic flow, six kinds of speed-density models are calibrated by least square method for clear and rainy weather and the respective best models to estimate free-flow speed and capacity are determined。 Next, the function between free-flow speed and rainfall intensity is also fitted and it is integrated into generalized speed-density models。 It is found that both weather and number of lanes influence free-flow speed and capacity, and generalized speed-density models also vary with different combination of weather and number of lanes。
