Commoning the touristic city. Urban pedestrian routes and the ambiguous politics of exploration

Luca Giovanni Pattaroni

This chapter explores touristic infrastructures as politics of ambiance, paying attention to the way they enable urban environment and engage pedestrians to experience cities critically. This issue will be documented through an ethnographic study of two to ...

Pedestrian Crossings as a Means of Reducing Conflicts between Cyclists and Pedestrians in Shared Spaces

Evangelos Paschalidis

One significant and simultaneously interesting problem in urban mobility has to do with the study of shared spaces where various categories of users coexist and act together. This paper aims to examine the behavior and preferences of pedestrians and cyclis ...

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 ...

Pedestrian typologies - nuanced considerations of urban walking

Vincent Kaufmann, Renate Albrecher

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 Stop and Go Forecasting with Hybrid Feature Fusion

Alexandre Massoud Alahi, Taylor Ferdinand Mordan, Dongxu Guo

Forecasting pedestrians' future motions is essential for autonomous driving systems to safely navigate in urban areas. However, existing prediction algorithms often overly rely on past observed trajectories and tend to fail around abrupt dynamic changes, s ...

Controlling pedestrian flows with moving walkways

Michel Bierlaire, Nicholas Alan Molyneaux

Moving walkways are pedestrian dedicated hardware which generally decrease pedestrian travel time. We propose the utilization of these devices to dynamically control pedestrian flows in order to improve pedestrian dynamics. Three variations of a control st ...

Dynamic control strategies for managing pedestrian flows

Nicholas Alan Molyneaux

Pedestrians, like drivers, generally dislike congestion. This is true for most pedestrian environments: trains stations, airports, or shopping malls. Furthermore, pedestrian congestion also influences the attractiveness of public transportation networks. T ...

This paper describes a novel method for non-holonomic robots of convex shape to avoid imminent collisions with moving obstacles. The method's purpose is to assist navigation in crowds by correcting steering from the robot's path planner or driver. We evalu ...

Design and analysis of control strategies for pedestrian flows

Michel Bierlaire, Riccardo Scarinci, Nicholas Alan Molyneaux

Exploiting the full potential of pedestrian infrastructure is becoming critical in many environments which cannot be easily expanded to cope with the increasing pedestrian demand. This is particularly true for train stations as in many dense cities space i ...

SPRINGER2020

The modeling of walking behavior and design of walk-friendly urban pathways have been of interest to many researchers over the past decades. One of the major issues in pedestrian modeling is path planning decision-making in a dynamic walking environment wi ...
