Pedestrian typologies - nuanced considerations of urban walking

The analyses of urban environments, norms, micro-census and scientific studies reveal a variety of myths about pedestrians. One of them is the dominant representation of the pedestrian: A single person, usually with healthy body and in leisure mode. Pedest ...

Pedestrian typologies - a sociological look on urban walkways

Vincent Kaufmann, Renate Albrecher

Representations of the pedestrian as a sole and healthy individual do not correspond to the reality and diversity of walking practices. The majority of urban pedestrians has to deal with constraints to their degrees of freedom in walking. We propose a typo ...

Performance of Pedestrian-Load Models through Experimental Studies on Lightweight Aluminum Bridges

Scott Walbridge, Ann Christine Sychterz

Aluminum structures provide a high strength-to-weight ratio, are corrosion resistant, and are esthetically pleasing. Hence, their use in bridge construction has recently begun to increase, especially for pedestrian bridges. Because of their relative light ...

A path choice approach to activity modeling with a pedestrian case study

Michel Bierlaire, Antonin Danalet

In Switzerland, the largest railway stations are called RailCities by the Swiss Railways. It emphasizes their transformation into places to perform different activities, similar to a small-scale city. Concerns are similar than in urban areas: costs of new ...

A macroscopic loading model for time-varying pedestrian flows in public walking areas

Michel Bierlaire, Bilal Farooq, Flurin Silvan Hänseler, Thomas Mühlematter

A macroscopic loading model applicable to time-dependent and congested pedestrian flows in public walking areas is proposed. Building on the continuum theory of pedestrian flows and the cell transmission model for car traffic, an isotropic framework is dev ...

A path choice approach to activity modeling with a pedestrian case study

Antonin Danalet

Theses slides present a model about activity choice seen as a route/path choice. An activity network is defined. Choice set generation is described. A route/path choice model is proposed. This model includes a measurement equation for WiFi traces, a correc ...

Revealed preference data from WiFi traces for pedestrian activity scheduling

Michel Bierlaire, Bilal Farooq, Antonin Danalet

We use communication network infrastructure, in particular WiFi traces, to detect activity-episodes sequences in a pedestrian facility. Due to the poor quality of WiFi localization, a probabilistic method is proposed that infers activity-episodes locations ...

An aggregate model for transient and multi-directional pedestrian flows in public walking areas

Michel Bierlaire, Bilal Farooq, Flurin Silvan Hänseler

A dynamic pedestrian propagation model applicable to congested and multi-directional flows is proposed. Based on the cell transmission model, several important extensions are made to describe the simultaneous and potentially conflicting propagation of mult ...

Graph Chatbot

Chattez avec Graph Search

Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.

AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.
