DOI: 10.1016/j.cstp.2021.07.012
Abstract: Abstract Urbanization and automobile-oriented development have resulted in a significant increase in vehicular trips towards central business district (CBD) areas, consequently increasing the demand for on-street parking. In many Indian cities, on-street parking demand is… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.physa.2019.04.081
Abstract: Abstract We present a two-dimensional (2D) lattice model based on the exclusion principle and Arrhenius microscopic dynamics to study bi-direction pedestrian flows. This model implements stochastic rules for pedestrians’ movements based on the configuration of… read more here.

Unpredictability in pedestrian flow: The impact of stochasticity and anxiety in the event of an emergency

DOI: 10.1016/j.physa.2019.121742
Abstract: Abstract Random interactions among pedestrians, usually produced by psychological effects (e.g. anxiety), can produce collective nontrivial phenomena in their flow dynamics. Here, we improve our understanding on these phenomena by implementing cellular automaton (CA) simulations… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.physa.2019.122333
Abstract: Abstract Previous research on the effect of obstacles on crowd dynamics primarily focused on relationships between the scale or position of obstacles and pedestrian movement behavior. However, the influence of different obstacle layouts on pedestrian… read more here.

DOI: 10.1051/mmnp/2021002
Abstract: The evacuation phenomena in the two dimensional pedestrian flow model are simulated. The intended direction of the escape of pedestrians in panic situations is governed by the Eikonal equation of the pedestrian flow model. A… read more here.

DOI: 10.1088/1742-5468/aa5755
Abstract: The pedestrian flow dynamics are very complex. Even the fundamental diagrams of uni-directional pedestrian flow exhibit diversity. In the empirical data of Mori-Tsukaguchi and Helbing et al, the flows drop drastically with medium densities and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1109/tits.2021.3093714
Abstract: As a common phenomenon, overtaking behaviour is frequently observed on pedestrian flow, which not only reshapes pedestrian flow but also generates adverse impacts on pedestrian safety to some extent. Prior research focused on unidirectional pedestrian… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0264635
Abstract: Common geometrical layouts could potentially be bottlenecks, particularly during emergency and high density situations. When pedestrians are interacting with such complex geometrical settings, the congestion effect might not be uniform over the bottleneck area. This… read more here.
