A well-motivated model of pedestrian dynamics
Ezel Üsten, Anna Sieben, Mohcine Chraibi +1
In pedestrian dynamics, the internal drive that propels individuals toward their goals is typically captured by a single, fixed parameter, the desired walking speed. This simplific…
Pedestrian Crowd Management Experiments: A Data Guidance Paper
Ann Katrin Boomers, Maik Boltes, Juliane Adrian +20
Understanding pedestrian dynamics and the interaction of pedestrians with their environment is crucial to the safe and comfortable design of pedestrian facilities. Experiments offe…
Inside a Life-Threatening Crowd: Analysis of the Love Parade Disaster from the Perspective of Eyewitnesses
Anna Sieben, Armin Seyfried
During the Love Parade disaster in 2011 in Duisburg, Germany, twenty one visitors were killed and more than five hundred injured in a very dense crowd on the route to and from the…
Crowds in front of bottlenecks at entrances from the perspective of physics and social psychology
Juliane Adrian, Armin Seyfried, Anna Sieben
This article presents an interdisciplinary study of physical and social psychological effects on crowd dynamics based on a series of bottleneck experiments. Bottlenecks are of part…
Crowding and Queuing in Entrance Scenarios: Influence of Corridor Width in Front of Bottlenecks
Juliane Adrian, Maik Boltes, Stefan Holl +2
In this paper, we present results of an entrance experiment investigating the effect of the corridor width in front of a bottleneck on the density. The idea is based on a previous…
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…
