The worldwide first pedestrian simulation software integrating two different models in order to deliver higher accuracy and flexbility in evaluating crowd dynamics is now available and can be downloaded from our website.
The new release combines two of the major models in pedestrian simulation with different characteristics, the classic social force model (SFM) based mainly on forces acting on the pedestrians, and the heuristic model of Moussaid and others which is based on cognitive and heuristic abilities of the agents.
No single model can cover all of the different situations in real life, every model has it strengths and weaknesses. That is the reason why SimWalk 5.1 offers now two different models the user can choose from, achieving optimal results for his projects.
