Includes Case Studies from a Range of Event Sites Introduction to
Crowd Science examines the growing rate of crowd-related accidents
and incidents around the world. Using tools, methods, and worked
examples gleaned from over 20 years of experience, this text
provides an understanding of crowd safety. It establishes how crowd
accidents and incidents (specifically mass fatalities in crowded
spaces) can occur. The author explores the underlying causes and
implements techniques for crowd risk analysis and crowd safety
engineering that can help minimize and even eliminate occurrences
altogether. Understand Overall Crowd Dynamics and Levels of Complex
Structure The book outlines a simple modeling approach to crowd
risk analysis and crowds safety in places of public assembly. With
consideration for major events, and large-scale urban environments,
the material focuses on the practical elements of developing the
crowd risk analysis and crowd safety aspects of an event plan. It
outlines a range of modeling techniques, including line diagrams
that represent crowd flow, calculations of the speed at which a
space can fill, and the time it takes for that space to reach
critical and crush density. It also determines what to consider
during the event planning and approval (licensing/permitting)
phases of the event process. Introduction to Crowd Science
addresses key questions and presents a systematic approach to
managing crowd risks in complex sites. It provides an understanding
of the complexity of a site, that helps you plan for crowds in
public places.
