讲座内容简介:

In 1919 a mass event took place in Jallianwala Bagh, Amritsar, with between 10 and 20 thousand participants. What was initially thought as a peaceful event turned into a massacre when riflemen under the

command of a British general started opening fire on the open crowd for about 10 minutes. To this date, the number of casualties is disputed, and ranges from 200 to 1500 dead, with at least 1500 wounded. The aim of this work is to reconstruct numerically the event of Jallianwala Bagh and investigate under which conditions it is possible to answer open questions by means of simulations of pedestrian dynamics. For this purpose, we use the open source software JuPedSim. However, since JuPedSim focuses more on the evacuation of pedestrians from buildings, in normal conditions, it is necessary to implement, new features relevant to the nature of the event. For instance, modeling of the shooting and its effects on the evacuees. Another important aspect is the missing three-dimensionality of the used model, which needs to be compensated in order to model injured pedestrians, who act as obstacles and pile up around corners and exits.
