Abstract

The importance of evacuation and pedestrian dynamics modelling has increased significantly over the past ten years, reflecting the growing global prominence of performance-based safety codes and the desire to achieve ever higher levels of safety, efficiency and comfort in pedestrian systems. The need for relevant data on which to base a rigorous theoretical framework for the development and validation of these models has, in turn, driven renewed interest in experimental human factors research.
