An Experimental Study of Pedestrian Congestions: Influence of Bottleneck Width and Length
arXiv:0911.4350
Abstract
The placement and dimensioning of exit routes is informed by experimental data and theoretical models. The experimental data is still to a large extent uncertain and contradictory. In this contribution an attempt is made to understand and reconcile these differences with our own experiments.
