3 Hierarchy of models Model hierarchies Fine to coarse scale models microscopic models: interacting particles, social force models (Helbing et al.), vision-based models (Degond et. al. ),... kinetic models: Vlasov-type, Vlasov-McKean equations macroscopic models: macroscopic models with non-local terms (Colombo et. al.) localized models (Hughes et al.,...)

4 Hierarchy of models Microscopic models: empirical distributions ρ N δ S (x) = δ S (x x j ) N j Function δ S = δ S (x), x R d with δ S (x) = S d δ ( x S ), δ S (x)dx =. Approximation of Dirac δ = δ(x) as S goes to 0. δ S smooth, rotationally symmetric, monotone decaying Axel Klar (TU Kaiserslautern) Macroscopic models and particle methods 4 / 40

5 Hierarchy of models Interaction potentials Function U R = U R (x), x R d. Example: U R smooth, rotationally symmetric, monotone decaying ( repulsive interaction potential). We use again U R (x) = U R d ( x R ) such that U (x)dx = and U R approximates δ for R 0. Joint interaction potential: ρ N U R (x) = U R (x x j ) N j Axel Klar (TU Kaiserslautern) Macroscopic models and particle methods 5 / 40

6 Hierarchy of models Interaction potentials for traffic / pedestrian flow unsymmetric, one-sided potentials, vision cones. d = : potentials depending on downstream traffic density with U(x) = 0, x > 0. This gives U(x i x j ) = 0 if x i x j > 0, i.e. x i > x j, i.e. interaction only with predecessor. Axel Klar (TU Kaiserslautern) Macroscopic models and particle methods 6 / 40

7 Hierarchy of models Microscopic equations for interacting particle system (x i, v i )(t) R 2 R 2, i =,..., N, V (ρ) = ρ. with dx i = v i dt dv i = V (ρ N δ S (x i ))ê(x i )dtdt x ρ N U R (x i )dt γv i dt + AdW i t ê(x) = φ(x) φ(x) where φ is the solution of the eikonal equation φ(x) = ( V (ρ N δ S (x))).

8 Hierarchy of models Remark: Reduced microscopic equations Simplified equations neglecting time dependence of velocities for x i (t) R d, i =,..., N, dx i = V (ρ N δ S (x i ))ê(x i )dt x ρ N U R (x i )dt + AdW i t Axel Klar (TU Kaiserslautern) Macroscopic models and particle methods 8 / 40

9 Hierarchy of models Mean field limit: Empirical measure The empirical measures of the stochastic processes (x i, v i ) are given by δ N (xi,v i )(x, v). i The mean field limit describes the convergence as N towards a deterministic distribution f = f (x, v). This gives the convergence of ρ N δ R (x i ) = δ R (x i x j ) N to a coarse grained density δ R (x y)ρ(y)dy = δ R ρ(x) j with ρ(y) = f (y, w)dw. Axel Klar (TU Kaiserslautern) Macroscopic models and particle methods 9 / 40

10 Hierarchy of models Mean field limit Starting from the microscopic equations for (x i, v i )(t), i =,..., N, this gives formally a limit stochastic process (x, v) R 2 R 2, the McKean -Vlasov equation dx = vdt dv = V (δ S ρ)êdt x U R ρdt γvdt + AdW t where ρ(y) = f (y, w)dw and f (x, v) is the distribution of the stochastic process (x, v). Axel Klar (TU Kaiserslautern) Macroscopic models and particle methods 0 / 40

11 Hierarchy of models Kinetic mean field equation The corresponding differential equation for the evolution of the distribution functions f = f (x, v, t), x, v R d is given by with force term and diffusion term t f + v x f = Sf + Lf Sf = v (V (δ S ρ)êf ) + v ( x U R ρf ). ) Lf = v (γvf + A2 2 v f. Rem.: For the reduced microscopic problems we obtain for ρ = ρ(x, t) ) t ρ = x (ρ ( V (δ S ρ)ê + x U R ρ) + A2 2 xρ. Axel Klar (TU Kaiserslautern) Macroscopic models and particle methods / 40

13 Hierarchy of models Balance equations Multiplying the mean field equation with and v one obtains t ρ + x (ρu) = 0, t ρu + x v vfdv = γρu + ρv (δ S ρ)ê ρ x U R ρ with the momentum ρu(x, t) := vf (x, v, t)dv. Closure problem: approximate v vfdv using ρ and u. Axel Klar (TU Kaiserslautern) Macroscopic models and particle methods 3 / 40

14 Hierarchy of models The closure problem Solution: choose ansatz function F = F [ρ, u](v) with Fdv = ρ and vfdv = ρu such that f F. Then, v vfdv v vfdv A monokinetic closure: F (v) = ρδ(v u) such that v vfdv = ρu u. Maxwellian closure with variance θ: F = M[ρ, u, θ](v) such that v vfdv = θρi + ρu u. A linear closure: choose F = ρ( + u v) M with for example M(v) = M[, 0, ](v)) such that v vfdv = ρi. F might be negative! Axel Klar (TU Kaiserslautern) Macroscopic models and particle methods 4 / 40

16 Hierarchy of models Hydrodynamic macroscopic models One obtains (maxwellian closure with variance θ) t ρ + x (ρu) = 0, t ρu + x (ρu u) + θ x ρ = γuρ + ρv (δ S ρ)ê ρ x U R ρ with the momentum ρu(x, t) := vf (x, v, t)dv. ê(x) = φ(x) φ(x) where φ is the solution of the eikonal equation φ(x) = V (δ S ρ(x)).

17 Hierarchy of models Localized models δ S or U R approximate for small values of S or R a δ-distribution and one obtains formally hydrodynamic equations of the form t ρ + x (ρu) = 0, t ρu + x (ρu u) = γuρ ρ x ρ + ρv (ρ)ê θ x ρ.

18 Hierarchy of models Remark: Scalar equations For the reduced microscopic problems we obtain Colombo-type equations t ρ = x ( V (δ s ρ)êρ) + x (ρ U R ρ). The localized versions are Hughes-type models t ρ = x ( V (ρ)êρ) + x (ρ x ρ). together with φ = V (ρ). Axel Klar (TU Kaiserslautern) Macroscopic models and particle methods 8 / 40

26 Numerical methods Macroscopic particle method and localized limit Procedure: Use higher order approximation of the density in the particle method, for example ρ(y) = Ñ [ρ j + σ j (y x j )] χ Vj (y) j= σ j : first order derivative approximated via least square fit from the point cloud plug into convolution integral Compute resulting integrals explicitely ( multiscale finite elements) one obtains correction factors x U R ρ(x i ) ( ) ρ j V j x U R (x i x j ) + σ i α i j i Axel Klar (TU Kaiserslautern) Macroscopic models and particle methods 26 / 40

27 Numerical methods Results This leads to a uniform scheme for different R and to the correct localized limit for R 0 even for an underresolved situation. Computation times depends on the number of particles (for microscopic simulation) and grid points (for macroscopic), The particle method can be viewed as a numerical transition from a microscopic model if a very fine resolution is used to a macroscopic model if a coarse resolution and the above fix is used.
