Some issues concerning oscillations in pedestrian crowds — •Tobias Kretz and Michael Schreckenberg — Universität Duisburg-Essen, 47057 Duisburg

No-dqOscillationsNo-dq occur in pedestrian dynamics when two different groups of pedestrians with different directions of motion meet or intersect at a certain spot. We present a model of pedestrian motion that is able to reproduce the full range of oscillation as well as a method to quantify the strength of oscillations.
