Self-Organization Phenomena in Pedestrian Crowds
Dirk Helbing, Peter Molnar
Pedestrian crowds can very realistically be simulated with a social force model which describes the different influences affecting individual pedestrian motion by a few simple forc…
Active Walker Model for the Formation of Human and Animal Trail Systems
Dirk Helbing, Frank Schweitzer, Joachim Keltsch +1
Active walker models have recently proved their great value for describing the formation of clusters, periodic patterns, and spiral waves as well as the development of rivers, diel…
Social Force Model for Pedestrian Dynamics
Dirk Helbing, Peter Molnar
It is suggested that the motion of pedestrians can be described as if they would be subject to `social forces'. These `forces' are not directly exerted by the pedestrians' personal…
Modelling the Evolution of Human Trail Systems
Dirk Helbing, Joachim Keltsch, Peter Molnar
Many human social phenomena, such as cooperation, the growth of settlements, traffic dynamics and pedestrian movement, appear to be accessible to mathematical descriptions that inv…
Computer Simulations of Pedestrian Dynamics and Trail Formation
D. Helbing, P. Molnar, F. Schweitzer
A simulation model for the dynamic behaviour of pedestrian crowds is mathematically formulated in terms of a social force model, that means, pedestrians behave in a way as if they…
