Pedestrian and evacuation dynamics 2005 / Nathalie Waldau [and others], editors.

"Due to an increasing number of reported catastrophes all over the world, the safety especially of pedestrians today, is a dramatically growing field of interest, both for practitioners as well as scientists from various disciplines. The questions arising mainly address the dynamics of evacuati...
