“…In the past, fatal accidents have occurred repeatedly at such large events. Examples include the catastrophe in the Heysel stadium in 1985 (LEWIS, 1989) with 39 fatalities or the Loveparade disaster in 2010 with 21 deaths (HITZLER et al, 2011). Professional crowd control increases the safety of public events and lowers the probability of fatal accidents in the context of large human flows.…”

Dense human flow has been a concern for the safety of public events for a long time. Macroscopic pedestrian models, which are mainly based on fluid dynamics, are often used to simulate huge crowds due to their low computational costs (COLOMBO and ROSINI, 2005). Similar approaches are used in the field of traffic simulations (LIGHTHILL and WHITHAM, 1955). A combined macroscopic simulation of vehicles and pedestrians is extremely helpful for all-encompassing traffic control. Therefore, we developed a hybrid model that contains networks for vehicular traffic and human flow. This comprehensive model supports concurrent multi-modal simulations of traffic and pedestrians (BIEDER-MANN, KIELAR, AUMANN, LAI and OSORIO, 2015).
