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 …

Introduction The safety of humans in crowded environments has been recognised as an
important and rapidly growing research area with significant implications for urban planning …

In crowd scenarios, predicting trajectories of pedestrians is a complex and challenging task
depending on many external factors. The topology of the scene and the interactions …

With the increasing of risk potential in crowded places, evacuation management becomes
practically important to ensure the safety of crowds. The studies of crowd evacuation in …

This paper discusses the development of an agent-based modeling software development
kit, and the implementation and validation of a model using it that integrates dynamic …

Crowd simulation has emerged in the last decade as a widely used method of visual effects,
computer games, and urban planning, etc. The improvement of hardware performance and …

The first part of our paper presents a general survey on the modeling, analytic problems, and
applications of the dynamics of human crowds, where the specific features of living systems …

This book presents mathematical models and numerical simulations of crowd dynamics. The
core topic is the development of a new multiscale paradigm, which bridges the microscopic …

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 …
