Microscopic dynamics at the Running of the Bulls (San Fermin Festival) in the context of the Social Force Model

F. E. Cornes, G. A. Frank, C. O. Dorso

This research explores the dynamics of the emergency evacuation during the "Running of the Bulls" festival (Spain, 2013). As people run to escape from danger, many pedestrians stum…

Faster and safer evacuations induced by closed vestibules

I. M. Sticco, G. A. Frank, C. O. Dorso

Improving emergency evacuations is a top priority in human safety and in pedestrian dynamics. In this paper, we use the social force model, in order to optimize high-anxiety pedest…

Microscopic dynamics of escaping groups through an exit and a corridor

Eric A. Rozan, Guillermo A. Frank, Fernando E. Cornes +2

This research explores the dynamics of emergency evacuations in the presence of social groups. The investigation was carried out in the context of the basic Social Force Model (SFM…

Improving competitive evacuations with a vestibule structure designed from panel-like obstacles

I. M. Sticco, G. A. Frank, C. O. Dorso

It has been shown that placing an obstacle in front of an exit door has proven to be a successful method to improve pedestrian evacuations. In this work, we will focus on the space…

COVID-19 spreading under containment actions

Fernando E. Cornes, Guillermo A. Frank, Claudio O. Dorso

We propose an epidemiological model that includes the mobility patterns of the individuals, in the spirit to those considered in (Barmak, 2011, 2016) and (Medus, 2011). We assume t…

Properties of nuclear pastas

Jorge A. Lopez, Claudio O. Dorso, Guillermo A. Frank

In this Review we study the nuclear pastas as they are expected to be formed in neutron star cores. We start with a study of the pastas formed in nuclear matter (composed of proton…

Microscopic dynamics of the evacuation phenomena

F. E. Cornes, G. A. Frank, C. O. Dorso

We studied the room evacuation problem within the context of the Social Force Model. We focused on a system of 225 pedestrians escaping from a room in different anxiety levels, and…

Social Force Model parameter testing and optimization using a high stress real-life situation

I. M. Sticco, G. A. Frank, C. O. Dorso

The escape panic version of the Social Force Model (SFM) is a suitable model for describing emergency evacuations. In this research, we analyze a real-life video, recorded at the o…

Cyclical lock-down and the economic activity along the pandemic of COVID-19

Fernando E. Cornes, Guillermo A. Frank, Claudio O. Dorso

The investigation focuses on an on-off protocol for controlling the COVID-19 widespread. The protocol establishes a working period of 4 days for all the citizens, followed by 8 day…

The thermal conductivity of "pastas" in neutron star matter

Claudio Dorso, Jonathan Dunn, Alejandro Strachan +1

This investigation explores the phononic thermal conductivity of nuclear star matter as it undergoes the "topological" transition to the "pasta" regime, and further down to the sol…

Effects of the body force on the pedestrian and the evacuation dynamics

Ignacio Sticco, Guillermo Frank, Claudio Dorso

The Social Force Model (SFM) is a suitable model for describing crowd behaviors under emotional stress. This research analyzes the role of the body force in the original SFM. We fo…

A re-examination of the role of friction in the original Social Force Model

I. M. Sticco, G. A. Frank, F. E. Cornes +1

The fundamental diagram of pedestrian dynamics gives the relation between the density and the flow within a specific enclosure. It is characterized by two distinctive behaviors: th…

Symmetry energy in neutron star matter

Claudio O. Dorso, Guillermo A. Frank, Jorge A. Lopez

We investigate the structure attained by neutron star matter with proton to neutron ratios ranging from x=0.1 to 0.5, densities in the range of 0.02 fm-3 to 0.085 fm-3, and tempera…

Panic contagion and the evacuation dynamics

F. E. Cornes, G. A. Frank, C. O. Dorso

Panic may spread over a crowd in a similar fashion as contagious diseases do in social groups. People no exposed to a panic source may express fear, alerting others of imminent dan…

Phase transitions and symmetry energy in nuclear pasta

C. O. Dorso, G. A. Frank, J. A. López

Cold and isospin-symmetric nuclear matter at sub-saturation densities is known to form the so-called pasta structures, which, in turn, are known to undergo peculiar phase transitio…

Beyond the "faster is slower" effect

I. M. Sticco, F. E. Cornes, G. A. Frank +1

The "faster is slower" effect raises when crowded people push each other to escape through an exit during an emergency situation. As individuals push harder, a statistical slowing…

High pressures in room evacuation processes and a first approach to the dynamics around unconscious pedestrians

F. E. Cornes, G. A. Frank, C. O. Dorso

Clogging raises as the principal phenomenon during many evacuation processes of pedestrians in a panic situation. As people push to escape from danger, compression forces may incre…

Room evacuation through two contiguous exits

I. M. Sticco, G. A. Frank, C. O. Dorso

Current regulations demand that at least two exits should be available for a safe evacuation during a panic situation. Although the "faster is slower" effect is expected to take pl…
