| Simulating the Circumambulation of the Ka'aba using SimWalk -The study of
circumambulation of the Ka’aba is taken as an illustrative example of pedestrian flow problems: 1. A large number of pedestrians causes crowd congestion, leading to disasters as pedestrians push into each other. 2. Entry into the Tawaf area is unlimited causing pilgrims to flow in from various directions at the same time.
This simulation study was conducted by engineers of the Universiti Sains Malaysia and the College of Applied Science, Umm Al-Qura University, Saudi Arabia.
