Empirical investigation on pedestrian dynamics in presence of groups: a real world case study
نویسندگان
چکیده
The paper reports the results of an empirical investigation on pedestrian dynamics in presence of groups. We consider a real world scenario in which an analysis of the impact of groups on the overall observed system dynamics was performed through manual counting and tracking. The simulation results are compared to empirical data and they show that the adopted model is able to produce quantitatively plausible results in situations characterised by the presence of groups of pedestrians.

An Agent-Based Approach to Pedestrian and Group Dynamics: Experimental and Real World Scenarios
The simulation of pedestrian dynamics is a consolidated area of application for agent-based models: successful case studies can be found in the literature and off-the-shelf simulators are commonly employed by decision makers and consultancy companies. These models, however, generally do not consider the explicit representation of pedestrians aggregations (groups), the related occurring relation...
متن کاملSimulation 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...

The paper introduces an agent-based model for the simulation of crowds of pedestrians whose main innovative element is the representation and management of an important type of social interaction among the pedestrians: members of groups, in fact, carry out of a form of interaction (by means of verbal or non-verbal communication) that allows them to preserve the cohesion of the group even in par...
