Abstract EN
Weaving area may be the critical risk place in the subway transfer station.
When improving service level of the weaving area, the characteristic of pedestrian weaving behavior should be systemically discussed.
This paper described the mechanism of weaving behavior on high density pedestrian which was analyzed by the collection data of controlled experiment.
Different weaving behaviors were contrasted due to different volumes in the bidirectional passageway.
Video analysis was conducted to extract pedestrian moving behavior and calibrate the movement data with SIMI Motion.
Influence of the high density weaving pedestrian was studied based on the statistical results (e.g., velocity, walking distance, and journey time).
Furthermore, the quantitative method by speed analysis was announced to discriminate the conflict point.
The scopes of weaving area and impact area at different pedestrian volumes were revealed to analyze the pedestrian turning angle.
The paper concluded that walking pedestrians are significantly influenced by the weaving conflict and trend to turn the moving direction to avoid the conflict in weaving area; the ratio of stable weaving area and impact area is 2 to 3.
The conclusions do provide a method to evaluate the transfer station safety and a facility layout guidance to improve the capacity.
