uses the analogy between traffic flows and the fluid flows.
In practise the model is discretised in time and space (Daganzo: Celltransmission model )
Discretization in time is done as considering time steps t
Discretization in space is done as dividing the motorway in sections x.
For numerical stability of solutions x > vt for all sections in network.
