STUDY FOR PEDESTRIAN FLOW USING DISCRETE ELEMENT METHOD

이산요소법을 이용한 보행흐름 해석

Research about pedestrian flow in the view of sociology and psychology has been studied for more than a few decade. Due to the advance of computational facility, computational study for pedestrian flow extended to the field of architecture and traffic engineering. However, there is few study for the extremely high dense condition where pedestrian flow is driven by contact force among pedestrian. In this research, we analyze highly dense pedestrian flow using discrete element method
