A Software Environment for Microscopic Pedestrian Simulation
نویسندگان
چکیده
The growth of both research on and the relevance of pedestrian simulation in the definition of strategies for urban planning increasingly reinforce its adoption and ultimate utility among practitioners and engineers. This paper reports on first steps and preliminarily results of the implementation of a platform for pedestrian simulation in multimodal exchange interfaces. Whereas most approaches in pedestrian simulation are aimed at studying intra and interactions among people using a common environment with different purposes and under different mobility restrictions, our research is focused on how those interactions will ultimately affect transportation operation at multimodal stations. This paper begins with a general overview of pedestrian simulation and focus on the microscopic representation of individuals and their interoperability as the basis for the implementation of our model.

Simulation of Pedestrian Dynamics with Macroscopic and Microscopic Mathematical Models
Here, we collect two parts of a research project on the pedestrian flow modeling. Rapid growth in the volume of public transport and the need for its reasonable, efficient planning have made the description and modeling of transport and pedestrian behaviors as important research topics in the past twenty years. First, we present a macroscopic model for the pedestrian flow based on continuum mec...
متن کاملOptimal Pedestrian Path Planning in Evacuation Scenario
Simulation of evacuation plans is a relatively complex problem. It is necessary to simulate a number of separate processes which interact in the result. Namely, they are pedestrian-pedestrian interactions, pedestrian-static object (e.g. wall) interactions and pedestrian-environment (fire, smoke, etc.) interactions. In this case, the evacuation simulation is controled on the microscopic level. M...
متن کاملToward a Hybrid Approach for Crowd Simulation
We address the problem of simulating pedestrian crowd behaviors in real time. To date, two approaches can be used in modeling and simulation of crowd behaviors, i.e. macroscopic and microscopic models. Microscopic simulation techniques can capture the accuracy simulation of individualistic pedestrian behavior while macroscopic simulations maximize the efficiency of simulation; neither of them a...

متن کاملMicroscopic Pedestrian Flow Characteristics: Development of an Image Processing Data Collection and Simulation Model
mistakes in the earlier draft of this manuscript and for her love and encouragement. Microscopic pedestrian studies consider detailed interaction of pedestrians to control their movement in pedestrian traffic flow. The tools to collect the microscopic data and to analyze microscopic pedestrian flow are still very much in its infancy. The microscopic pedestrian flow characteristics need to be un...
