Apply the Edie two-regime model to the data set shown in Figure Question 1a. Select what you consider to be appropriate flow parameters and breakpoint location between the free-flow regime and the congested-flow regime. Summarize your results in a fashion similar to Figure Question 3. Perform a sensitivity analysis of the effect of flow parameters and breakpoint location on the suitability of the resulting flow-speed-density relationships.
