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…

Crowd Dynamics in Historical Perspective: Reframing the Amritsar Massacre through Agent-Based Modelling and Social Psychology

Mohcine Chraibi, Krisztina Konya, Ezel Üsten

Crowds have long held a paradoxical place in the human imagination, feared for their destructive potential yet essential for collective expression. This tension was tragically mani…

When legs and bodies synchronize: Two-level collective dynamics in dense crowds

Thomas Chatagnon, Mohcine Chraibi, Julien Pettré +2

Ultra-dense crowds, in which physical contact between people cannot be avoided, pose major safety concerns. Nevertheless, the underlying dynamics driving their collective behaviour…

Exploring Dense Crowd Dynamics: State of the Art and Emerging Paradigms

Thomas Chatagnon, Antoine Tordeux, Mohcine Chraibi

Dense pedestrian crowds may pose significant safety risks, yet their underlying dynamics remain insufficiently understood to reliably prevent accidents. In these environments, phys…

Hybrid Machine Learning and Physics-based Modelling of Pedestrian Pushing Behaviours at Bottlenecks

Qiancheng Xu, Ezel Üsten, Ahmed Alia +3

In high-density crowds, close proximity between pedestrians makes the steady state highly vulnerable to disruption by pushing behaviours, potentially leading to serious accidents.…
