Huang, R. (author), Zhao, Xuan (author), Yuan, Y. (author), Yu, Qiang (author), Liu, Chengqing (author), Daamen, W. (author)Pedestrian tactical choices and operational movement in evacuations essentially pertain to decision-making under risk and uncertainty. However, in microscopic evacuation models, this attribute has been greatly overlooked, even lacking a methodology to delineate the related decision characteristics (bounded rationality and risk attitudes), let...journal article 2023

Hamdar, Samer Hani (author), Talebpour, Alireza (author), D’sa, Kyla (author), Knoop, V.L. (author), Daamen, W. (author), Treiber, Martin (author)Pedestrians are among the travelers most vulnerable to collisions that are associated with high fatality and injury rates. The increasing rate of urbanization and mixed land-use construction make walking (along with other non-motorized travel) a predominant transportation mode with a wide variety of behaviors expected. Because of the inherent...journal article 2022

Yuan, Y. (author), Goni Ros, B. (author), Bui, Ha H. (author), Daamen, W. (author), Vu, Hai L. (author), Hoogendoorn, S.P. (author)Macroscopic pedestrian models are theoretically simpler than microscopic models, and they can potentially be solved faster while producing reasonable predictions of crowd dynamics. Therefore, they can be very useful for applications such as large-scale simulation, real-time state estimation and crowd management. However, the numerical methods...journal article 2020

Johansson, F. (author), Duives, D.C. (author), Daamen, W. (author), Hoogendoorn, S.P. (author)In force based models of pedestrian traffic, the relaxation time, ?, is related to the time it takes a pedestrian to adapt its motion to its preferences. An example of this is linear acceleration, but ? is also connected to how the agent adjusts to spatial variations in its preferred velocity, and affects evasive maneuvers. These many roles of ?...journal article 2014
