The Properties of Campus Road Traffic Networks

In order to research the properties of campus traffic networks, the paper designs the model of campus traffic network by the primal approach to describe five typical campus road traffic networks in China. Based on complex network theory, the averaged-degree, averaged-clustering coefficient, averaged-path length, network density, betweenness, network closeness and so on are computed and analyzed. The results show that road traffic networks on campus have small-world behavior but no scale-free property. And they have community structure. The average degree and network density of campus traffic networks are small that indicate the connectivity and integrity of campus networks are not good, to a certain extent, network robustness is weak.
