In this work the results of a bottleneck experiment with pedestrians are presented in the form of total times, fluxes, specific fluxes, and time gaps. A main aim was to find the dependence of these values from the bottleneck width. The results show a linear decline of the specific flux with increasing width as long as only one person at a time can pass, and a constant value for larger bottlenec...
متن کاملExperimental Study of Phase Transition in Pedestrian Flow
The transition between low and high density phases is a typical feature of systems with social interactions. This contribution focuses on simple evacuation design of one room with one entrance and one exit; four passing-through experiments were organized and evaluated by means of automatic image processing. The phase of the system, determined by travel time and occupancy, is evaluated with resp...
متن کاملSimulation of Traffic Flow Through Bottleneck
In this paper, we describe the simulation of the traffic flow on a road with a construction zone. The simulation model is based on the cellular automata and the stochastic velocity model. The simulation results on a road with a construction zone are compared with them on a road without a construction zone. Although the analytical study indicates that the traffic flow on a road with a constructi...
متن کاملA Study of Automatically Tracking Pedestrian Flow
The purpose of this work is to analyze the movement of pedestrians in urban areas.I1l At present there is not enough data to analyze the movement of pedestrians a~curately.~~' In the architectural field, tracking and distribution data is now being done by hand.I31 In the image processing field it is difficult to track the movement of pedestrians the same way as a car, because the original image...
متن کاملNew Insights into Pedestrian Flow Through Bottlenecks
Capacity estimation is an important tool for the design and dimensioning of pedestrian facilities. The literature contains different procedures and specifications which show considerable differences with respect to the estimated flow values. Moreover do new experimental data indicate a stepwise growing of the capacity with the width and thus challenge the validity of the specific flow concept. ...
