Grouping is a common phenomenon in pedestrian crowds and plays important roles ill affecting crowd behavior. Group modeling is still an open challenging problem and has not been incorporated by existing crowd Simulation models. Motivated by the need of group modeling for crowd behavior simulation, this paper presents a unified and well-defined framework for modeling tire structure aspect of different groups in pedestrian crowds. Both intra-group structure and inter-group relationships are considered and their effects on the crowd behavior are modeled. Based on this framework, an agent-based crowd Simulation system is developed and crowd behavior simulations using two different group structures are presented. The simulation results show that the developed framework allows different group structures to be easily modeled. Besides, different group sizes, intragroup structures and inter-group relationships can have significant impacts oil crowd behaviors. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
