Contributor De Schutter, B. (promotor) Hellendoorn, J. (promotor) Faculty Mechanical, Maritime and Materials Engineering Department Delft Center for Systems and Control Date 2015-04-20 Abstract Macroscopic modeling, predictive and robust control and route guidance for large-scale freeway and urban traffic networks are the main focus of this thesis. In order to increase the efficiency of our control strategies, we propose several mathematical and optimization techniques. Moreover, in the second part of the thesis, based on the hybrid nature of our traffic models, we develop robust switching control schemes for switched nonlinear systems and for our urban traffic control application.
