We consider the vanishing viscosity approximation of the traffic model, proposed by Lighthill, Whitham, and Richards, on a network composed by a single junction with n incoming and m outgoing roads. We prove that a solution of the parabolic approximation exists and, as the viscosity vanishes, the solution of the parabolic problem converges to a solution of the original problem.

Abstract

We consider the vanishing viscosity approximation of the traffic model, proposed by Lighthill, Whitham, and Richards, on a network composed by a single junction with n incoming and m outgoing roads. We prove that a solution of the parabolic approximation exists and, as the viscosity vanishes, the solution of the parabolic problem converges to a solution of the original problem.
