Abstract: Self-stabilization effect reflects the adaptive change of the current lattice in traffic flow. To improve traffic flow, a new self-stabilization term in this paper is inserted into lattice hydrodynamic model for two-lane freeway. It is shown that the self-stabilization effect can increase traffic stability on two lanes whether lane changing occurs or not according to linear stability analysis. In view of numerical simulation, the self-stabilization effect enhances the stability of the traffic flow in the modified lattice hydrodynamic model for two-lane freeway.
