To effectively manage vessel traffic and alleviate congestion on busy inland waterways, a comprehensive understanding of vessel traffic flow characteristics is crucial. However, limited data availability has resulted in minimal research on…
A significant number of those killed in traffic accidents annually refers to pedestrians. most of these accidents occur when a pedestrian is going to pass the street. One of the most hazardous areas for pedestrians crossing the street is…
The ubiquitous deployment of monitoring devices in urban flow monitoring systems induces a significant cost for maintenance and operation. A technique is required to reduce the number of deployed devices, while preventing the degeneration…
This study aims to investigate, through neuroscientific methods, the effects of particular architectural elements on pedestrian spatial cognition and experience in the analysis and design of walking street spaces. More precisely, this paper…
In this paper, two important factors which affect the pedestrian outflow at a bottleneck significantly are studied in detail to analyze the effect of an obstacle set up in front of an exit. One is a conflict at an exit when pedestrians…
Urban planners and policy makers face the challenge of creating livable and enjoyable cities for larger populations in much denser urban conditions. While the urban microclimate holds a key role in defining the quality of urban spaces today…
Employing partially overlapping overhead \kinectTMS sensors and automatic pedestrian tracking algorithms we recorded the crowd traffic in a rectilinear section of the main walkway of Eindhoven train station on a 24/7 basis. Beside giving…
A simple model to handle the flow of people in emergency evacuation situations is considered: at every point x, the velocity U(x) that individuals at x would like to realize is given. Yet, the incompressibility constraint prevents this…

Pedestrian crowding occurs more frequent. As a result of the increasing pedestrian demand in public space, the limits of pedestrian spaces are of increasing interest. Some research on the maximum demand that can flow through a cross-section…
Pedestrian behaviours tend to depend on the type of facility. Therefore accurate predictions of pedestrians movements in complex geometries (including corridor, bottleneck or intersection) are difficult to achieve for classical models with…
Real-time motion detection in non-stationary scenes is a difficult task due to dynamic background, changing foreground appearance and limited computational resource. These challenges degrade the performance of the existing methods in…
