How do I simulate a gridlock?

Open this page and use the live Genetic Algorithm tool below — set your inputs and the simulation runs instantly in your browser using real numerics. No install, no account needed.

Yes. The simulation runs free in your browser. A one-time unlock or a Pro plan adds advanced parameters, saved presets, data import, and clean exports.

Can I use my own numbers?

Absolutely — every input is adjustable, and with data import you can drive a gridlock from your own measurements.

Mutation rate

A population of candidate solutions is scored by fitness (bright = high). The fittest are selected, crossed over, and mutated each generation. Watch the swarm climb toward the global peak while dodging local optima.

Governing equation

P_{i} = \frac{f _{i}}{\sum _{j} f _{j}}, μ = 0.08, f_{m a x} = 0.000

Reading this result: Balanced mutation (0.08) with population 80: enough diversity to escape local optima while still converging — the classic explore-vs-exploit sweet spot.

About this simulation

The full Genetic Algorithm tool models a gridlock with the same numerics engineers and scientists use — running entirely client-side. Change any parameter and the result updates in real time, so you can build intuition, check a design, or teach the concept without spreadsheets or installs.
