From: Mechanical response of dense pedestrian crowds to the crossing of intruders
Crowds’responses to their crossing by a pedestrian, in terms of the average density field (in ped/m2) around the intruder (top row) and the mean velocity field around him or her (bottom row). The participants’ crowd was facing the intruder and was fairly sparse (left, \(\bar{\rho }\approx 1.5\,{\mathrm{ped}/{\rm{m}}}^{{\rm{2}}},{\rm{x5}}\)) or very dense (right, \(\bar{\rho }\approx 6\,{\mathrm{ped}/{\rm{m}}}^{{\rm{2}}},{\rm{x10}}\)). The red arrow corresponds to a speed of 30 cm⋅s−1.
