Research on the Effects of Heterogeneity on Pedestrian Dynamics in Walkway of Subway Station

Table 1

Categorization of pedestrians.

Categorization	Characteristics	Average walking speed (m/s)	Average occupied space (m^2/pedestrian)	Proportion (%)
Pedestrians walking in pairs	Two pedestrians walking together, hand in hand (arm in arm), talking with each other, holding a baby, and so forth.	1.15	0.32	19
Pedestrians with large luggage	Pedestrians who carry large luggage, including a suitcase, hiking bag, and stroller. The occupied space by the luggage is approximately equal to the occupied space by one pedestrian.	1.15	0.30	6
Fast pedestrians	Pedestrians walk alone and fast, and they do not carry or only carry small baggage.	1.57	0.16	35
Ordinary pedestrians	Pedestrians walk alone at a normal speed and do not carry or only carry small baggage.	1.16	0.16	40
