Abstract: Abstract We discuss various phenomena of crowd dynamics and pedestrian evacuation in places with a large public. From the simulations of flows, we analyze the design solutions that promote the stabilization of walking paths in opposite directions, the induction and stabilization of flows at intersections, and the improvement of flows in bottlenecks.
