Using tools, methods, and worked examples gleaned from over 20 years of experience, this text provides an understanding of crowd safety. It establishes how crowd accidents and incidents (specifically mass fatalities in crowded spaces) can occur. The author explores the underlying causes and implements techniques for crowd risk analysis and crowd safety engineering that can help minimize and even eliminate occurrences altogether. \u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eUnderstand Overall Crowd Dynamics and Levels of Complex Structure\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book outlines a simple modeling approach to crowd risk analysis and crowds safety in places of public assembly. With consideration for major events, and large-scale urban environments, the material focuses on the practical elements of developing the crowd risk analysis and crowd safety aspects of an event plan. It outlines a range of modeling techniques, including line diagrams that represent crowd flow, calculations of the speed at which a space can fill, and the time it takes for that space to reach critical and crush density. It also determines what to consider during the event planning and approval (licensing\/permitting) phases of the event process.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntroduction to Crowd Science\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e addresses key questions and presents a systematic approach to managing crowd risks in complex sites.
