We report on two series of experiments, conducted in the frame of two different collaborations designed to study how pedestrians adapt their trajectories and velocities in groups or crowds. Strong emphasis is put on the motivations for the…

This paper examines the optimal velocity follow-the-leader dynamics, a microscopic traffic model, and explores different aspects of the dynamical model, with particular emphasis on collision analysis. More precisely, we present a rigorous…
