Modeling Pedestrian Dynamics with Adaptive Cellular Automata

Cellular automata modeling for pedestrian dynamics

Cellular Automata Based Model for Pedestrian Dynamics

We construct a two dimensional Cellular Automata based model for the description of pedestrian dynamics. Wide range of complicated pattern formation phenomena in pedestrian dynamics are described in the model, e.g. lane formation, jams in a counterflow and egress behavior. Mean-field solution of the densely populated case and numerical solution of the sparsely populated case are provided. This ...

Modeling Population Dynamics with Cellular Automata

When predicting changes in plant populations, spatial interactions must be considered. Cellular automata are models incorporating both spatial and temporal dynamics. Vegetation data were sampled on a meadow over three years using the point-quadrat method and population dynamics of three single species were modeled with a cellular automaton using stochastic decision rules. Links with the theory ...

A Cellular Automata Model for Pedestrian and Group Dynamics

The simulation of pedestrian dynamics is a consolidated area of application for cellular automata based models: successful case studies can be found in the literature and off-the-shelf simulators are commonly employed by end-users, decision makers and consultancy companies. These models, however, generally consider individuals, their interactions with the environment and among themselves, but t...

Simulation for Pedestrian Dynamics by Real-Coded Cellular Automata (RCA)

In this paper, we propose a new approach for pedestrian dynamics. We call it a Realcoded Cellular Automata (RCA). The scheme is based on the Real-coded Lattice Gas (RLG), which has been developed for fluid simulation. Similar to RLG, the position and velocity can be freely given, independent of grid points. Our strategy including the procedure for updating the position of each pedestrian is exp...
