Model And Simulation Of Pedestrians Moving In A Subway Station

Using the advanced model and theories of traffic and computer simulation technology to research the pedestrian simulation method in subway station, can provide favorable guidance for the rational management of the design of rail transit, which is significantly important to improve the infrastructure design and layout, and to ensure the safety of pedestrians. Based on attractive force model, the study focused on pedestrians’movement behavior of subway station, analyzing individuals actions and crowds’flow. After understanding these characteristics, the important properties will be quantifying and given parameters to carry out a proper model. At the same time, the study referred the social force model to improve the attractive force model, referred to the principle of cellular automata, by dividing into unit cells to simplify the simulation process, referred to Moving Effective algorithm to compute the link cost of the path network, referred to the hydrodynamic model to supplement the case of the passenger at the wall corner, all those of which are aiming to reflect the pedestrian movement behavior in reality.The first chapter describes the purpose and significance of the status of related research areas and this study. The second chapter, based on attractive force model and combined with the reality, regarded the individuals as a form of charged particles, and gave the movement rules, then establishing the simulation model. The third chapter focused the behavior of how pedestrians choosing the stairs and escalators, and showed the route choice model. The fourth chapter described the steps of how to apply a model for the subway station. When passenger in the subway station, are choosing a forward path, he received the impact of the path of the network model based on moving-effective path. And this chapter illustrated wicket modeling, which is a typical subway phenomenon. C#language in the fifth chapter was used there were three basic operating rules for the pedestrians’behavior. After then, it was going to integrate these three basic movements to form the simulation of objective subway station. The use of model-based parameters investigated pedestrian flow performance, showing the speed-density of the experimental results, which was compared to the existing studies are to verify the applicability of this model. In the final sixth chapter, it resulted to summarize and find the lack of this study and work.
