Collective phenomena in crowds - where pedestrian dynamics need social psychology
Anna Sieben, Jette Schumann, Armin Seyfried
This article is on collective phenomena in pedestrian dynamics during the assembling and dispersal phases of gatherings. To date pedestrian dynamics have been primarily studied in…
Congestion Dynamics in Pedestrian Single-File Motion
Verena Ziemer, Armin Seyfried, Andreas Schadschneider
This article considers execution and analysis of laboratory experiments of pedestrians moving in a quasi-one-dimensional system with periodic boundary conditions. To analyze charac…
Jamming transitions in force-based models for pedestrian dynamics
Mohcine Chraibi, Takahiro Ezaki, Antoine Tordeux +3
Force-based models describe pedestrian dynamics in analogy to classical mechanics by a system of second order ordinary differential equations. By investigating the linear stability…
Effects of Boundary Conditions on Single-File Pedestrian Flow
Jun Zhang, Antoine Tordeux, Armin Seyfried
In this paper we investigate effects of boundary conditions on one dimensional pedestrian flow which involves purely longitudinal interactions. Qualitatively, stop-and-go waves are…
Experimental studies of pedestrian flows under different boundary conditions
Jun Zhang, Armin Seyfried
In this article the dynamics of pedestrian streams in four different scenarios are compared empirically to investigate the influence of boundary conditions on it. The Voronoi metho…
Steady State of Pedestrian Flow in Bottleneck Experiments
Weichen Liao, Antoine Tordeux, Armin Seyfried +4
Experiments with pedestrians could depend strongly on initial conditions. Comparisons of the results of such experiments require to distinguish carefully between transient state an…
Assessment of Models for Pedestrian Dynamics with Functional Principal Component Analysis
M. Chraibi, T. Ensslen, H. Gottschalk +2
Many agent based simulation approaches have been proposed for pedestrian flow. As such models are applied e.g.\ in evacuation studies, the quality and reliability of such models is…
Comparison of bidirectional pedestrian flows by experiments
Jun Zhang, Armin Seyfried
Intersections of pedestrian flows feature multiple types, varying in the numbers of flow directions as well as intersecting angles. In this article results from diverse bidirection…
Universal flow-density relation of single-file bicycle, pedestrian and car motion
Jun Zhang, Wolfgang Mehner, Stefan Holl +4
The relation between flow and density is an essential quantitative characteristic to describe the efficiency of traffic systems. We have performed experiments with single-file moti…
Empirical characteristics of different types of pedestrian streams
Jun Zhang, Armin Seyfried
Reliable empirical data and proper understanding of pedestrian dynamics are necessary for fire safety design. However, specifications and data in different handbooks as well as exp…
Experimental study of pedestrian flow through a T-junction
Jun Zhang, Wolfram Klingsch, Andreas Schadschneider +1
In this study, series of experiments under laboratory conditions were carried out to investigate pedestrian flow through a T-junction, i.e., two branches merging into the main stre…
Generalized Centrifugal Force Model for Pedestrian Dynamics
Mohcine Chraibi, Armin Seyfried, Andreas Schadschneider
A spatially continuous force-based model for simulating pedestrian dynamics is introduced which includes an elliptical volume exclusion of pedestrians. We discuss the phenomena of…
Modeling Stop-and-Go Waves in Pedestrian Dynamics
Andrea Portz, Armin Seyfried
Several spatially continuous pedestrian dynamics models have been validated against empirical data. We try to reproduce the experimental fundamental diagram (velocity versus densit…
A Modification of the Social Force Model by Foresight
B. Steffen
The motion of pedestrian crowds (e.g. for simulation of an evacuation situation) can be modeled as a multi-body system of self driven particles with repulsive interaction. We use a…
Modeling of pedestrian movement around 90 and 180 degree bends
B. Steffen, A. Seyfried
For the planning of large pedestrian facilities, the movement of pedestrians in various situations has to be modelled. Many tools for pedestrian planning are based on cellular auto…
Methods for measuring pedestrian density, flow, speed and direction with minimal scatter
Bernhard Steffen, Armin Seyfried
The progress of image processing during recent years allows the measurement of pedestrian characteristics on a "microscopic" scale with low costs. However, density and flow are con…
Quantitative Description of Pedestrian Dynamics with a Force based Model
Mohcine Chraibi, Armin Seyfried, Andreas Schadschneider +1
This paper introduces a space-continuous force-based model for simulating pedestrian dynamics. The main interest of this work is the quantitative description of pedestrian movement…
