FlowState
Navier-Stokes traffic modeling that predicts congestion waves in real time and issues speed guidance to dissipate them
FlowState applies principles of fluid mechanics to simulate traffic patterns and deliver optimal driving recommendations that dissipate congestion faster. The platform models traffic as fluid flow using computational fluid dynamics and Navier-Stokes-based approaches to predict congestion waves in real time. Adaptive speed guidance helps drivers collectively reduce stop-and-go patterns, improve average flow speeds, and lower fuel consumption per platoon-with research indicating substantial jam reduction at modest connected-vehicle penetration.
