Abstract

The paper presents a proposal of an adaptation of our model of the skier’s dynamics and behaviors for different groups of downhill skiers: beginner, intermediate and advanced. First, we propose parametrization of our model for different groups, and next we test certain characteristics of motion for different populations of skiers. We have found that by introducing diverse populations with different behavioral patterns, we obtain a much more realistic simulation results, for instance, a more accurate distribution of skiers on ski-slopes and more realistic interactions between them.

  1. 1.

    In this case, on the basis of Eq. 2, the eccentricity equals 0 and the ellipse is a circle.
