Pilot Model for Estimating Pedestrian Intersection Crossing Volumes

Assessing Pedestrian Crossing Risk at Signalised Intersection

Pedestrian are most at risk when crossing a road section with a large amount of pedestrian-vehicle interaction. Thus, an understanding of the complex interaction between pedestrian behaviour, signal setting and environment is essential to assess the contribution of these factors to pedestrian accidents. The complexity of these interactions could possibly been described and explored using a powe...

Estimating Pedestrian Volumes and Crashes at Urban Signalized Intersections

Crash prediction models are used to estimate the number of crashes using a set of explanatory variables. The highway safety community has used modeling techniques to predict vehicle-to-vehicle crashes for decades. Specifically, generalized linear models (GLMs) are commonly used because they can model non-linear count data such as motor vehicle crashes. Regression models such as the Poisson, Zer...

Simulation model of crossing pedestrian movements for infrastructure planning

Abstract: Infrastructure planning requires an extensive knowledge of potential pedestrian behavior, in particular at high crowd densities. The modelling and simulation of pedestrian movements is an important tool in the planning and operation of airports, railway stations, sports stadiums, shopping malls, and other public places. For example, in shopping malls, optimal models are needed to guid...
