Abstract
In this paper we collect two parts of a research project on the pedestrian flow modeling. Rapid growth in the volume of public transport and the need for its reasonable, efficient planning has made the description and modeling of transport and pedestrian behaviors an important research topic in the last twenty years. Comparatively little attention has been paid to the problem of pedestrian crowd behaviors in geometries with multiple destinations: each of the possibly many pedestrians moves to one out of a number of destinations. The objective of the present study is to investigate pedestrian behaviors in such a context. The central problem is the modeling of crossing pedestrian streams. In view of a desirable practical relevance, realistic, i.e. rather complex geometries are studied in this context.
