TY - CHAP U1 - Konferenzveröffentlichung A1 - Axthelm, Rebekka T1 - Finite Element Simulation of a Macroscopic Model for Pedestrian Flow T2 - Traffic and Granular Flow '15 N2 - We analyse the results of a finite element simulation of a macroscopic model, which describes the movement of a crowd, that is considered as a continuum. A new formulation based on the macroscopic model from Hughes [2] is given. We present a stable numerical algorithm by approximating with a viscosity solution. The fundamental setting is given by an arbitrary domain that can contain several obstacles, several entries and must have at least one exit. All pedestrians have the goal to leave the room as quickly as possible. Nobody prefers a particular exit.
