Crowd Dynamics Through Conservation Laws

TLDR
In this paper, several macroscopic models, based on systems of conservation laws, were considered for the study of crowd dynamics. But none of the models considered here contain nonlocal terms, usually obtained through convolutions with smooth functions used to reproduce the visual horizon of each individual.
Abstract
We consider several macroscopic models, based on systems of conservation laws, for the study of crowd dynamics. All the systems considered here contain nonlocal terms, usually obtained through convolutions with smooth functions, used to reproduce the visual horizon of each individual. We classify the various models according to the physical domain (the whole space \({\mathbb {R}}^N\) or a bounded subset), to the terms affected by the nonlocal operators, and to the number of different populations we aim to describe. For all these systems, we present the basic well posedness and stability results.

On the singular local limit for conservation laws with nonlocal fluxes

TL;DR: In this article, the authors give an answer to a question posed in Amorim et al. (ESAIM Math Model Numer Anal 49(1):19-37), which can loosely speaking, be formulated as follows: consider a family of continuity equations where the velocity depends on the solution via the convolution by a regular kernel.

TL;DR: In this paper, the problem of approximating a scalar conservation law by a conservation law with nonlocal flux was studied, and it was shown that the (unique) weak solution of the nonlocal problem converges strongly in O(L √ n) to the entropy solution of local conservation law.

Rigorous Derivation of Nonlinear Scalar Conservation Laws from Follow-the-Leader Type Models via Many Particle Limit

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the Kržkov entropy solution to a scalar nonlinear conservation law with strictly monotone velocity and nonnegative initial condition can be rigorously obtained as the large particle limit of a microscopic follow-the-leader type model, interpreted as the discrete Lagrangian approximation of the nonlinear scalar conservation law.
