This paper proposes a lattice model of traffic flow based on a critical safety potential field and driver vigilance feedback to address the stability and safety issues caused by differences in vehicle mass, volume, and length in mixed traffic environments. First, the model introduces lightweight passenger vehicles to establish a new scenario for mixed traffic flow. Second, it improves the traditional safety potential field model by incorporating vehicle speed, mass, and length characteristics into the macro-traffic flow model. Finally, it introduces driver vigilance feedback for different vehicle types to create a novel lattice model for mixed traffic environments. Linear and nonlinear stability analyses indicate that while the increase in commercial vehicle volume and mass slightly enhances traffic flow stability through driver vigilance feedback, increasing driver vigilance feedback for commercial vehicles can effectively improve traffic stability, whereas increasing vigilance feedback for lightweight passenger cars tends to exacerbate traffic congestion. Numerical analyses further verify the theoretical accuracy of the model, integrating micro-traffic flow with macro-traffic flow and simulating the evolution of density waves and critical safety potential field forces under mixed traffic conditions with varying vehicle mass and volume differences. The model proposed in this paper, by introducing driver vigilance feedback and a critical safety potential field, offers a new theoretical framework for understanding and predicting the dynamic behavior of mixed traffic flow, providing an innovative solution to address traffic stability issues in mixed traffic environments.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":9764,"journal":{"name":"Chaos Solitons & Fractals","volume":"199 ","pages":"Article 116689"},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2025-06-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144272608","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper aims to establish a connection between these two topics to deepen our understanding of chaotic intermittency. Specifically, we explore how the probabilities associated with waiting or sojourn times in random telegraphic signals can be linked to the probability density of laminar lengths, as determined through a novel theoretical framework of chaotic intermittency. To validate our theoretical findings, we conduct a series of numerical experiments focused on three different types of intermittencies: type I, type II, and type III. We demonstrate that the correlation between random telegraphic signals and chaotic intermittency offers several advantages. In particular, this formulation enables the evaluation of the probability that the system remains in either a laminar or chaotic phase. Therefore, this technique facilitates the comparison between analytical and numerical approaches, and we conclude that there is a very close alignment between both approaches.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":9764,"journal":{"name":"Chaos Solitons & Fractals","volume":"199 ","pages":"Article 116650"},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2025-06-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144272609","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
