abstract = {Corners can be commonly observed in most building
facilities. However, pedestrians' turning behavior at the
corners, especially in collective movements, is rarely
studied and not fully understood. To investigate the effects
of such configuration on pedestrian flow, both uni- and
bidirectional experiments were conducted in a right-angled
corridor. From the fundamental diagram, it is found that
pedestrians in our experiments are less sensitive to
high-density situations and the velocity at high densities
tends to be larger than observed values in former studies.
Besides, in our experiments, no noticeable difference is
observed between the fundamental diagrams in uni- and
bidirectional scenarios for densities below 2 ped m−2.
According to the density profile, pedestrians in
unidirectional turning movements tend to seek the shortest
path, whereas their followed path is more influenced by the
detour behavior against encounters when it comes to
bidirectional scenarios. Besides, due to the collision
avoidance behavior and lane formation phenomenon in
bidirectional scenarios, the highest density does not emerge
at the innermost side of the corner, but is slightly outward
in high-density case. According to the position-velocity
relation, generally speaking, pedestrians' velocity will
decrease as they approach the corner. But for the outer most
lane in bidirectional scenarios, pedestrians' velocity may
increase as there is more space available. As for angular
velocity, we observe that generally in bidirectional
streams, pedestrians from the inner lane are more likely to
possess a higher value than those in outer lane. But some
exceptional cases exist, for example, when a certain inner
lane is severely constrained or pedestrians from outer lane
try to avoid physical contact with those in inner lane. The
results obtained can serve as a basis for model validation
and offer more insights into the dynamics of pedestrians in
geometries with corners.},
