Towards modelling abreast to in-file transitions in small pedestrian groups

Alessandro Corbetta, Chiel van der Laan, Francesco Zanlungo

Pedestrians in a crowd largely walk in small groups, dyads above all, and modelling how these groups arrange themselves is a step towards realistic models of the crowd as a whole.…

Spontaneous gait synchronisation in the wild: exploring the effect of distance and level of interaction

Adrien Gregorj, Zeynep Yücel, Francesco Zanlugo +1

Gait synchronization in pedestrians is influenced by biomechanical, environmental, and cognitive factors. Studying gait in ecological settings provides insights often missed in con…

Social aspects of collision avoidance: A detailed analysis of two-person groups and individual pedestrians

Adrien Gregorj, Zeynep Yücel, Francesco Zanlungo +2

Pedestrian groups are commonly found in crowds but research on their social aspects is comparatively lacking. To fill that void in literature, we study the dynamics of collision av…

Analysis and modelling of macroscopic and microscopic dynamics of a pedestrian cross-flow

Francesco Zanlungo, Claudio Feliciani, Zeynep Yücel +2

In this work we investigate the behaviour of a human crowd in a cross-flow. We first analyse the results of a set of controlled experiments in which subjects were divided into two…

Some considerations on crowd Congestion Level

Francesco Zanlungo, Claudio Feliciani, Zeynep Yucel +2

The concept of (crowd) Congestion Level () was introduced in Feliciani et al (Transportation Research, 2018) and presented at the PED 2018 conference by C. Feliciani. Following…

The effect of social groups on the dynamics of bi-directional pedestrian flow: a numerical study

Francesco Zanlungo, Luca Crociani, Zeynep Yücel +1

We investigate the effect of groups on a bi-directional flow, by using novel computational methods. Our focus is on self-organisation phenomena, and more specifically on the time n…

Intrinsic group behaviour: dependence of pedestrian dyad dynamics on principal social and personal features

Francesco Zanlungo, Zeynep Yucel, Drazen Brscic +2

Being determined by human social behaviour, pedestrian group dynamics depends on "intrinsic properties" of the group such as the purpose of the pedestrians, their personal relation…

The effect of social roles on group behaviour

Francesco Zanlungo, Zeynep Yucel, Takayuki Kanda

In a recent series of papers, we proposed a mathematical model for the dynamics of a group of interacting pedestrians. The model is based on a non-Newtonian potential, that account…
