abstract = {Emergency exits as bottlenecks in escape routes are
important for designing traffic facilities. Especially the
fundamental diagram is a crucial performance criterion for
assessment of pedestrians' safety in facilities and an
important basis for calculation methods. For this reason,
several studies were performed during the last decades which
focus on the quantification of movement through bottlenecks.
These studies were usually conducted with populations of
homogeneous characteristics to reduce influencing variables
and for reasons of practicability.Studies which consider
heterogeneous characteristics in performance parameters are
rarely available. In response and to reduce this lack of
data a series of well-controlled large-scale movement
studies considering pedestrians with different disabilities
was carried out.As result it is shown that the empirical
relations 𝑣(𝜌) and 𝐽(𝜌) are strongly affected by
the presence of participants with visible disabilities (such
as wheelchair users) and the perception of the disability by
the non-disabled participants. An adaption of movement
speeds to movement speeds of participants using a wheelchair
was observed, even for low densities and free flow
scenarios. Flow and movement speed are in a complex relation
and do not depend on density only. In our studies, the
concept of specific flow does fit for the non-disabled
subpopulation but it is not valid for the disabled
participants.},
