Daamen, W. Hoogendoorn, S.P. Faculty Civil Engineering and Geosciences Department Transport and Planning Date 2015-09-09 Abstract An efficient simulation method for two-dimensional continuum pedestrian flow models is introduced. It is a two-dimensional and multi-class extension of the Go-dunov scheme for one-dimensional road traffic flow models introduced in the mid 1990’s. The method can be applied to continuum pedestrian flow models in a wide range of applications from the design of train stations and other travel hubs to the study of crowd behaviour and safety at religious and cultural events. The combination of the efficient simulation method with continuum models enables the user to get simulation results much quicker than before. This opens doors to real time crowd control and to more advanced optimisation of planning and control.
