Colombo, Rinaldo M.; Rosini, Massimiliano D.
Pedestrian flows and non-classical shocks. (English)
[J] Math. Methods Appl. Sci. 28, No. 13, 1553-1567 (2005). ISSN 0170-4214; ISSN 1099-1476/e

Summary: We present a model for the flow of pedestrians that describes features typical of this flow, such as the fall due to panic in the outflow of people through a door. The mathematical techniques essentially depend on the use of non-classical shocks in scalar conservation laws.
