โฆ Synopsis
This paper develops a discrete velocity mathematical model in spatially homogeneous conditions for vehicular traffic along a multilane road. The approach consists of a natural development of a recent model proposed within the framework of the generalized kinetic theory with discrete velocities and described in details in this paper. Numerical simulations are provided for different road conditions and global densities.

Discrete element based simulations of granular flow in a 2d velocity space are compared with a particle code that solves kinetic granular flow equations in two and three dimensions. The binary collisions of the latter are governed by the same forces as those governing the discrete elements. Both met
