Collecting pedestrian behaviour data is vital to understand pedestrian behaviour. This
systematic review of 147 studies aims to determine the capability of contemporary data …

Understanding the behavior of human crowds is a key step toward a safer society and more
livable cities. Despite the individual variability and will of single individuals, human crowds …

Revised and significantly expanded, the fifth edition of this classic work offers both new and
substantially updated information. As the definitive reference on fire protection engineering …

We discuss models and data of crowd disasters, crime, terrorism, war and disease
spreading to show that conventional recipes, such as deterrence strategies, are often not …

Human crowds often bear a striking resemblance to interacting particle systems, and this
has prompted many researchers to describe pedestrian dynamics in terms of interaction …

Human crowd motion is mainly driven by self-organized processes based on local
interactions among pedestrians. While most studies of crowd behaviour consider only …

Currently, pedestrian simulation models are used to predict where, when and why
hazardous high density crowd movements arise. However, it is questionable whether …

Each year, crowd disasters happen in different areas of the world. How and why do such
disasters happen? Are the fatalities caused by relentless behavior of people or a …

Understanding the collective dynamics of crowd movements during stressful emergency
situations is central to reducing the risk of deadly crowd disasters. Yet, their systematic …

This article presents a review of the use of optimisation models for pedestrian evacuation
and design problems. The articles are classified according to the problem type that is …
