Comparison

On this page different categories of comparisons for validation and verification of PedGo and AENEAS are illustrated. The Comparisons are divided in the following categories:

• Comparison with Experiments
• Comparison with Simulations
• Comparison with Hand Calculation Methods

In each category there are several publications listed:

Comparison with Experiments

		Final Report BYPASS, Within the research project BYPASS there were several evacuation exercises accomplished. Afterwards the results of the exercises were compared to the simulation results of PedGo and AENEAS. Further information about the research project BYPASS can be found at BYPASS. Final report, 2003, pdf, 2,8 MB
		Hubert Klüpfel, Tim Meyer-König, Michael Schreckenberg Empirical data on an evacuation exercise in a movie theater, The paper shows the results of an evacuation exercise in a movie theater in comparison to simulation results of PedGo. Paper, 2001, pdf, 0,2 MB
		Report Evacuation Exercise Movie Theater, The report shows the results of an evacuation exercise in comparison to simulation results of PedGo.(german version). Report, 2000, pdf, 0,3 MB
		Hubert Klüpfel, Comparison of an Evacuation Exercise in a Primary School to Simulation Results, The paper shows the results of an evacuation exercise in a primary school in comparison to simulation results of PedGo. Paper, 2002, pdf, 0,1 MB
		Report Evacuation Exercise Primary School, The report shows the results of an evacuation exercise in a primary school in comparison to simulation results of PedGo.(german version). Report, 2002, pdf, 0,8 MB
		Hubert Klüpfel, The simulation of crowd dynamics at very large events - calibration, empirical data, and validation, The paper illustrates the leaving of persons of the soccer stadium in Dortmund in comparison with simulation results of PedGo. Paper, 2002, pdf, 0,1 MB

Comparison with Simulations
