32. In Chapters 8 and 18 of [14] a theory of freeway capacity at a bottleneck is presented. In this theory my conclusion has already been formulated, simulated, and explained in detail (see for example the paragraph "Dependence of Maximum Capacities of Free Flow on Flow Rate to On-Ramp" on page 222 and Figs. 8.1, 8.4 in the book [14]).
