Abstract

Empirical Research on Pedestrians’ Behavior and Crowd Dynamics

Highlights

  • Di erent research questions and application areas mean that pedestrian behavior and crowd dynamics are investigated across a broad range of spatial and temporal scales. e papers collected in this special issue demonstrate that methodological and technological developments make it possible to cover spatial scales ranging from con ned bottleneck scenarios to city quarters and temporal scales from minutes to days

  • Empirical data on pedestrian behavior and crowd dynamics is useful to directly inform our understanding or to facilitate the development of monitoring methodologies, but it helps to test the theory developed in this eld

  • A substantial research e ort has been directed at investigating pedestrian behavior and crowd dynamics theoretically using mathematical or computational models [1,2,3]

Summary

Introduction

Empirical data on pedestrian behavior and crowd dynamics is useful to directly inform our understanding or to facilitate the development of monitoring methodologies, but it helps to test the theory developed in this eld. Di erent research questions and application areas mean that pedestrian behavior and crowd dynamics are investigated across a broad range of spatial and temporal scales. E papers collected in this special issue demonstrate that methodological and technological developments make it possible to cover spatial scales ranging from con ned bottleneck scenarios to city quarters and temporal scales from minutes to days.
