Abstract

In this research, we introduce a modified TASEP model with a bottleneck in order to model visitors’ behavior in a crowded aquarium, Kaiyukan in Japan, and to propose a congestion reduction method. It is distinct in that visitors walk through a fixed one-way aisle, as opposed to a typical museum or aquarium where visitors can move freely in an open space. Using theoretical analysis and numerical simulation, we investigated the basic congestion features caused by the bottleneck and developed new indicators to estimate congestion.

This research work was in part supported by JST-Mirai Program Grant Number JPMJMI20D1 and JSPS KAKENHI Grant Numbers 20K14992, JP21H01570 and JP21H01352.
