Abstract

One room with one exit and one multiple entrance is modelled using 32 different settings and modifications of floor field model. The influence of following aspects are investigated in the scope of the transition from free flow to congestion phase with respect to the inflow rate: Heterogeneity/Homogeneity; With/Without bounds; Moore/von Neumann neighbourhood; Synchronous/Asynchronous update; High/Low friction. Considering the average travel time through the room and average room occupancy the settings incorporating the bounds and synchronous update seems to match the experimental data from the qualitative point of view.
