  1. 1. Similarity metric for crowd trajectory evaluation on a per-agent basis : An approach based on the sum of absolute differences

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Karl Brunnberg; [2023]
    Keywords : Crowd Simulation; Trajectory; Similarity Metric; Virtual Agents; Crowd Perception; Folkmassasimulering; Färdväg; Likhetsmetrik; Virtuella Agenter; Folkmassaperception;

    Abstract : Simulation models that replicate realistic crowd behaviours and dynamics are of great societal use in a variety of fields of research and entertainment. In order to evaluate the accuracy of such models there is a demand for metrics and evaluation solutions that measure how well they simulate the dynamics of real crowds. READ MORE

  2. 2. Moving in the dark : Mathematics of complex pedestrian flows

    University essay from Karlstads universitet/Fakulteten för hälsa, natur- och teknikvetenskap (from 2013)

    Author : Meghashyam Veluvali; [2023]
    Keywords : Mathematical modelling of pedestrian dynamics; stochastic systems; evacuation time; random walk method; parabolic equation; finite difference method;

    Abstract : The field of mathematical modelling for pedestrian dynamics has attracted significant scientific attention, with various models proposed from perspectives such as kinetic theory, statistical mechanics, game theory and partial differential equations. Often such investigations are seen as being a part of a new branch of study in the domain of applied physics, called sociophysics. READ MORE

  3. 3. Selective Kernel Network based Crowding Counting and Crowd Density Estimation

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Jinchen Liu; [2023]
    Keywords : Crowding Counting; Convolution Neural Network; Selective kernel; Trängselräkning; konvolutionsneuralnätverk; Selektiv kärna;

    Abstract : Managing crowd density has become an immense challenge for public authorities due to population growth and evolving human dynamics. Crowd counting estimates the number of individuals in a given area or scene, making it a practical technique applicable in real-world scenarios such as surveillance and traffic control. READ MORE

  4. 4. Analysis of Footbridge Comfort Vibrations

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Byggnadsmekanik; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för byggvetenskaper

    Author : Niklas Thuresson; Henrik Ruuth; [2023]
    Keywords : footbridges; dynamics; vibrations; accelerations; Sétra; comfort vibrations; natural frequencies; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The aim of this master's thesis was to investigate and increase the knowledge of how different parameters affect the dynamic properties of steel beam bridges used for pedestrian traffic. Steel footbridges are commonly used due to their high strength and low weight. READ MORE

  5. 5. Simulation of standing versus crawling during evacuation from a smoke-filled room

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : David Bergendorff; Jonas Lundin; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Crawling is often the recommended method when evacuating from a burning room. In this study, an agent based crowd simulation in combination with a fire dynamics simulator is used in order to compare how well crawling evacuation compares to a standing type of evacuation. READ MORE
