[0031] The following embodiments enable a person skilled in the art to more comprehensively understand the present application, but do not limit the present application in any way.

[0032] Figure 1 A flow chart of the highway network macroscopic cascading failure prediction method under large-scale emergencies according to the embodiment of the present application. Referring to Figure 1 The highway network macroscopic cascading failure prediction method comprises the following steps:

[0033] Step A, collecting detection data of detectors distributed on the highway network, and identifying whether each road segment of the highway network is congested at different time periods according to the detection data;

[0034] Step B, combining the congestion identification results of each road segment of the highway network at different time periods, judging the state of each road segment at the current time node t, and the road segment state comprises a free flow road segment, a recovery road segment, a congested road segment and a propagating road segment; wherein the free flow road segment refers to a road segment that has not been congested in the time period [0, t]; the recovery road segment refers to a road segment that has been congested in the time period [0, t] but is in a free flow state at the time node t; the congested road segment refers to a road segment that is in a congested state at the time node t and the congestion has propagated to the upstream road segment; and the propagating road segment refers to a road segment that is in a congested state at the time node t but the congestion has not propagated to the upstream road segment;

[0036] Step D, calculating the conversion rate of each road segment state at the current time node t, generating a cascading failure evolution model of the highway network, and predicting the macroscopic evolution law of the highway network cascading failure.

[0037] Specifically, the highway network macro-cascading failure prediction method comprises the following steps:

[0038] (1) Data arrangement and extraction: The detector data is arranged, and field data including detector position, detector measured flow, detector measured density and detector measured speed is extracted.

[0039] (2) Road section state identification:

[0040] (21) The data is divided according to time nodes, and the time node of the occurrence of the event is taken as the starting time node, and whether the road section is congested is identified according to the detector speed data extracted in step (1):

[0041]

[0042] Where j is the road section number, v j (t) is the average speed of the j road section at the t time node, is the speed limit of the road section, and ε j (t) is the ratio of v j (t) and v .

[0043]

[0044] In the formula, θ j (t) is a 0-1 variable, ρ is a threshold value given in advance, and θ j (t) = 1 represents that the j road section is in a congested state at the t time node.

[0045] (22) Further divide the road section state, if the j road section is in a free flow state at the t time node and has not been congested in the [0-t] time window, the j road section is a free flow road section at the t time node, otherwise it is a recovery road section; if the j road section is in a congested state at the t time node, and the congestion has propagated to the upstream node, the j road section is a congested road section at the t time node, otherwise it is a propagating road section.

[0046] (3) Shock wave speed calculation: on the basis of the road section classification in step (2), the shock wave speed is calculated according to the conversion of the road section state:

[0047]

[0048] In the formula, U w is the shock wave speed, when the traffic flow with a flow of Q1 and a density of K1 encounters the traffic flow with a flow of Q2 and a density of K2, the generated shock wave speed is u w .

[0049] (4) Cascade failure law summary: use the shock wave speed obtained in step (3), based on the FHCR model, to summarize the cascade failure evolution law at the road network level, the specific operation is as follows:

[0050] (41) Determine the state transition of each road segment at the current time node;

[0051] (42) According to different state transitions, calculate the shock wave speed of the road segment, and then calculate the propagation time of the shock wave on the road segment. FH (t) represents the time required for the free flow road segment at the t time node to transform into the propagation road segment, δ HC (t) represents the time required for the propagation road segment at the t time node to transform into the congestion road segment, δ HR (t) represents the time required for the propagation road segment at the t time node to transform into the recovery road segment, T CR (t) represents the time required for the congestion road segment at the t time node to transform into the recovery road segment;

[0052] (43) Record the conversion rate of each road segment state at the current time node, and predict the cascade failure evolution law of the highway network according to the available data:

[0053]

[0054] Where F(t), H(t), C(t), R(t) are the number of free flow, propagation, congestion and recovery state road segments at t time node; P FH (t) represents the conversion rate of the free flow road segment at the t time node to the propagation road segment; similarly, P HC (t), P HR (t) and P CR (t) are the conversion rate of the propagation road segment at the t time node to the congestion road segment, the conversion rate of the propagation road segment to the recovery road segment, and the conversion rate of the congestion road segment to the recovery road segment, respectively; λ is the average number of upstream road segments on the effective link in the road network.

[0055] The cascade failure evolution model of the highway network generated in step (4) uses a set of dynamic differential equations, and the data input is the data collected by each detector. The macroscopic evolution law of the highway network cascade failure is obtained by calculating the shock wave speed and the conversion rate and conversion time at each time node.

[0065] (3) Record the conversion rate of each road section state at the current time node, and according to the available data, predict the cascade failure evolution law of the highway network:

[0066]

[0067] where F(t), H(t), C(t), and R(t) are the number of free flow, propagating, congested, and recovery state road sections at time node t, respectively. FH (t) represents the conversion rate of the free flow road section to the propagating road section at time node t, and similarly, P HC (t), P HR (t), and P​CR (t) is respectively the conversion rate of the link section in the propagation to the congestion link section, the conversion rate of the link section in the propagation to the recovery link section and the conversion rate of the congestion link section to the recovery link section; and λ is the mean value of the number of upstream link sections of the effective link in the road network.

[0068] The cascade failure prediction result is as shown in the following table 1 Figure 4

[0069] (Fourth) Comparison of prediction results: compare the number of predicted congestion link sections with the number of real congestion link sections, and use R 2 index as the measurement:

[0070]

[0071] wherein C(t) is the number of real congestion link sections at each time point, and the average value of the number of congestion link sections at each time point in the research time period.

[0072] The R 2 index of the two research areas is shown in table 2.

[0075] As can be seen from table 2, the prediction accuracy of the present application is more than 90%, thus indicating that the macro cascade failure prediction method of highway network under large-scale emergency event proposed by the present application is feasible and has high prediction accuracy.

[0076] The macro cascade failure prediction method of highway network under large-scale emergency event of the present application, under the multi-source traffic big data environment constructed, comprehensively considers the network traffic flow theory and the technical method of the infectious disease model, combines the shock wave theory, analyzes the space-time distribution mechanism of traffic flow, considers the transition between network failure states and travel behavior adjustment, integrates the evolution law of traffic flow situation, forms a magnitude model of cascade failure evolution through data-driven reconstruction, performs prediction and optimization according to the model, dynamically updates the network cascade failure state, and reflects the evolution law of the whole process cascade failure with time from the road network level.
