The term computer simulation is related to the usage of a computational model in order to
improve the understanding of a system's behavior and/or to evaluate strategies for its …

As a collective and highly dynamic social group, the human crowd is a fascinating
phenomenon that has been frequently studied by experts from various areas. Recently …

The literature of pedestrian, crowd and evacuation dynamics is captured in its approximate
full scope and is analysed at various levels using scientometric indicators of its underlying …

In the case of emergency situations, robotic systems can play a key role and save human
lives in recovery and evacuation operations. To realize such a potential, we have to address …

Doors and corridors are necessary architectural elements in public infrastructure such as
transit stations, buildings and stadiums. Previous documented crowd disasters have showed …

Simulating and evaluating the impact that a building design might produce on its prospective
occupants is a key challenge in architectural design. Prior work demonstrated the …

Goal-directed pedestrian movement behavior is extensively studied by researchers from
varied fields, but pedestrian's movement actions such as 'impulse stops' resulting from …

Situations characterised by the presence of a high density of pedestrians involved in
negative interactions (eg flows in opposite directions) often represent a problematic scenario …

The authors propose a new methodology for creating realistic and effective models of crowd
dynamics, which takes into account the Agent-based approach combined with non …
