Biham-Middleton-Levine Traffic Model
This is a cellular automaton which exhibits phase transitions and
self-organisation. It consists of some cars that can only move downwards
(blue), and others that can only move rightwards (red).
The two types of cars take turns to move. Each type of car can only move
forwards if there is a space in front of it, otherwise it stays put. The cars
are placed in random starting positions with a given density 蟻. They
are placed on a toroidal 2D lattice, such that the right edge is connected to
the left and the bottom is connected to the top.
Phase Transitions
The BML model has two primary phases: a free-flowing phase, where a
low density of cars will self-organise and produce a smooth flow of traffic;
and a jammed phase where no cars can move.
There are also intermediate phases that combine jammed and free-flowing
phases, in either a periodic or disordered manner.
Lattice Dimensions
The behaviour of the model depends on the exact dimensions of the lattice as
well as the initial density of the cars.
Dimensions that are coprime tend to produce periodic intermediate phases
near the transition density, and disordered phases for non-coprime dimensions.
However, this is not always the case e.g. periodic phases have also been found
for square lattices such as 128x128 at 蟻=0.36.

The thrillingness was slightly shorn of its vibrations by the return of her mother, who had a great deal to say about the felicitous manner in which she had opened the bazaar. She had brought back with her a small plush monkey climbing a string, and a realistic representation of a spider’s web, with a woolly spider sitting in the middle of it. The rim of the web was fitted with hooks, so that you could hang it up anywhere. She selected the base of the pink clock as the most suitable site. "Why, he's going to Japan," said Mrs. Bassett. With the first streak of dawn the boys were on deck, where they were joined by Doctor Bronson. The sun was just rising when the steamer dropped her anchor, and, consequently, their first day in the new country was begun very early. There was an abundance of sights for the young eyes, and no lack of subjects for conversation. XV VENUS AND MARS "Well, neither shall I." CHAPTER XLVII. FLOWN.
