DOI: 10.1109/tits.2024.3512501
Abstract: Panic behaviors in a pedestrian flow often lead to a state of chaos or disorder among the pedestrian crowd, resulting in a crowd accident with high possibility. To investigate the panic pedestrian dynamics and further… read more here.

DOI: 10.1126/sciadv.1701512
Abstract: This study develops “crash test dummies” to help designers avoid their footbridges oscillating or bouncing alarmingly. Modern pedestrian and suspension bridges are designed using industry standard packages, yet disastrous resonant vibrations are observed, necessitating multimillion… read more here.

DOI: 10.1126/sciadv.adw2688
Abstract: Movement of pedestrian crowds is ubiquitous in human society. However, it is unclear what dynamical regimes pedestrian crowds can exhibit at different crowd densities, how pedestrians move in these different dynamical regimes, and in which… read more here.
