We introduce a modeling approach for pedestrian speed-density relationship. It is motivated by a high scatter in real data that precludes the use of traditional equilibrium relationships. To characterize the observed pattern we relax the homogeneity assump ...

An exploration of moving walkways as a transport system in urban centers

Michel Bierlaire, André Ourednik, Riccardo Scarinci, Farzaneh Bahrami

Moving walkways (MW) have been imagined as a possible means of transport since the late 19th century, and this system has fascinated urban planners and engineers ever since. Contrary to what has been imagined, moving walkways are only used in transportatio ...

Modeling pedestrian flows in train stations: The example of Lausanne railway station

Michel Bierlaire, Michaël Clément Louis Ghislain Thémans, Riccardo Scarinci, Flurin Silvan Hänseler, Nicholas Alan Molyneaux

In collaboration with the Swiss Federal Railways (SBB-CFF-FFS), various challenges associated with pedestrian flows in train stations are discussed at the example of Lausanne railway station. For this site, a rich set of data sources including travel surve ...

Assessing the usage and level-of-service of pedestrian facilities in train stations: A Swiss case study

Michel Bierlaire, Riccardo Scarinci, Flurin Silvan Hänseler

A framework for assessing the usage and level-of-service of rail access facilities is presented. It consists of two parts. A dynamic demand estimator allows to obtain time-dependent origin-destination flows within pedestrian facilities. Using that demand, ...

Analysis of Traffic Performance of a Merging Assistant Strategy Using Cooperative Vehicles

Riccardo Scarinci

Emerging in-car communication technologies continually offer new communication capabilities between vehicles and infrastructure that, together with more accurate positioning systems, can be used to improve the use of current infrastructure. The aim of this ...
