Figure 12

The snapshots of the 2D passenger movement corresponding to a simulation during the model calibration, t=5 s, t=50 s, and t=100 s. Blue dot markers represent alighting passengers and red dot markers represent passengers coming from the left stair/escalator, while magenta dot markers represent passengers coming from the right stair/escalator.
(a) t=5 s
(b) t=50 s
(c) t=100 s
