abstract = {This article presents an interdisciplinary study of
physical and social psychological effects on crowd dynamics
based on a series of bottleneck experiments. Bottlenecks are
of particular interest for applications such as crowd
management and design of emergency routes because they limit
the performance of a facility. In addition to previous work
on the dynamics within the bottleneck, this study focuses on
the dynamics in front of the bottleneck, more specifically,
at entrances. The experimental set-up simulates an entrance
scenario to a concert consisting of an entrance gate
(serving as bottleneck) and a corridor formed by barriers.
The parameters examined are the corridor width, degree of
motivation and priming of the social norm of queuing. The
analysis is based on head trajectories and questionnaires.
We show that the density of persons per square metre depends
on motivation and also increases continuously with
increasing corridor width, meaning that a density reduction
can be achieved by a reduction of space. In comparison to
other corridor widths observed, the narrowest corridor is
rated as being fairer, more comfortable and as showing less
unfair behaviour. Pushing behaviour is seen as ambivalent:
it is rated as unfair and listed as a strategy for faster
access.},
