Glossary

Pedestrian:

A pedestrian is a person travelling on foot. In this article, other characterizations are used, depending on the context, e.g., agent or particle.

Crowd:

A large group of pedestrians who have gathered together. Depending on the perspective, more specific definitions exist.

Microscopic models:

Microscopic models represent each pedestrian separately with individual properties (e.g., walking velocity or route choice behavior) and his/her interactions with other individuals. Typical models that belong to this class are cellular automata and the force-based models.

Macroscopic models:

Macroscopic models do not distinguish individuals. The description is based on aggregate quantities, e.g., appropriate densities. Typical models belonging to this class are fluid-dynamic approaches.

Acceleration-based models:

Acceleration-based models are microscopic models defined by a system of second-order ordinary differential equations. The resulting acceleration is integrated twice...
