PEDESTRIAN FLOW RATE SIMULATION SYSTEM

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To compare/examine and propose the appropriate arrangement of a facility and paths that become moving lines or scale thereof by evaluation a facility plan from blocks in term of an area level and the flow of men using the facility. SOLUTION: The plane view of an objective area is displayed on the screen of a display (S1). Places generating and absorbing the flow to respective places from the inside of the facility are generated as generation nodes and absorption nodes. Roads and paths connecting the respective nodes are connected by lines and links are generated (S2). The start time and termination time of simulation and time ticking are inputted and the distance of the respective links is inputted at the input screen of the attributes of the links (S3). The flow rate of the respective links and the retaining quantity of branching nodes are calculated (S4). The flow rate of the respective links is displayed by multi-stage identification and the timewise change of the flow rate of the respective links is displayed and the retaining quantity of the branching nodes is displayed (S5). Thus, the flow rate of pedestrians using the facility is easily calculated.
