Traffic Flow Estimates.
Hart, Vincent G.
Australian Mathematics Teacher, v37 n3 p10-11 Nov 1981
Two examples are given of ways traffic engineers estimate traffic flow. The first, Floating Car Method, involves some basic ideas and the notion of relative velocity. The second, Maximum Traffic Flow, is viewed to involve simple applications of calculus. The material provides insight into specialized applications of mathematics. (MP)
