Mathematical background and interest in modelling complex systems and visualisation
Description:
The aim of this project is to design and implement a computational model of pedestrian flow within a hospital ward. The project will involve the critical assessment of recent advances in pedestrian flow modelling and the development of a pedestrian flow model that is specifically suited to an environment where individuals are highly heterogeneous and have multiple goals. This project is an opportunity to develop skills in computational modelling and complex systems analysis. The option to use cellular automata, agent-based modelling or other modelling formalism is open.
