Cellular automaton modeling of pedestrian movement behavior on an escalator Project supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (Grant Nos. 71473207 and 71871189), the Research Grant Council of the Hong Kong Administrative Region, China (Grant No. CityU118909), and the Open Fund of Beijing Engineering and Technology Research Center of Rail Transit Line Safety and Disaster Prevention (Grant No. RRC201701). |
(color online) Number of pedestrians on the escalator when its speed is 0 and pedestrian speed vH varies from 0.1 m/s to 1.2 m/s, with number of escalator steps ns being (a) 0, (b) 1, and (c) 2. |
