Self-Organized Phase Transitions in Cellular Automaton Models for Pedestrians

Minoru Fukui and Yoshihiro Ishibashi¹

(Received February 8, 1999)

Cellular automaton models for walking of pedestrians are studied in a system where one pedestrian and many pedestrians walk in the opposite direction and encounter each other on a passageway. Two models have been studied for the behavior avoiding from collision when the pedestrians meet with each other. Phase transitions on the walking behavior occur by self-organization with the critical density on the pedestrians. ©1999 The Physical Society of Japan
