Investigation of cyclist and pedestian impacts with motor vehicles using experimentation and simulation [PDF]
, 2010 Physical tests were performed with a bicycle and a dummy in a controlled laboratory environment to reproduce cyclist accidents. The kinematics of 13 sled tests were used to identify the cyclist head impact location, understand the interaction between ...

3D INDOOR-PEDESTRIAN INTERACTION IN EMERGENCIES: A REVIEW OF ACTUAL EVACUATIONS AND SIMULATION MODELS [PDF]
The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2022 Pedestrian motions and behaviours in evacuations are compactly interrelated indoor environments. According to how pedestrians interact with indoor environments in three-dimensional (3D) space, 3D indoor-pedestrian interaction is defined as five sorts of ...

A Motion-Based Conceptual Space Model to Support 3D Evacuation Simulation in Indoor Environments
ISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2023 Three-dimensional (3D) indoor models are a crucial component to simulate pedestrian evacuations realistically in indoor environments. However, existing 3D indoor models cannot fully represent realistic indoor environments to enable the simulation of 3D ...

Exploring the Effects of Different Walking Strategies on Bi-Directional Pedestrian Flow
Discrete Dynamics in Nature and Society, 2013 Three types of different walking behaviors (right preference, conformity, and space priority) are taken into account to model bi-directional pedestrian flow in the channel with cellular-automata formulation. The fundamental diagrams of R-pedestrian flow,
