"The objective of this research was to develop a model of crowds, specifically aimed at defining numerical standards for crowd safety." G. Keith Still 2000.
Since the publication of this material I've developed simpler, easier to understand crowd risk analysis and event modelling techniques. These are the subject and content of the workshops I run around the world. Click here for more information.
In the hyper-linked web version of my thesis (chapter links below) have annotated various pages to add further commentary for the subject matter. The broader topics of crowd science are covered in the book, “Introduction to Crowd Science”. Click on the book image (right) to take you to the CRC Press order page.
