This modification of the individuals’ shape allows one to naturally reproduce recent experimental findings of room evacuations through narrow doors in situations where the contact pressure among the pedestrians was rather large. In particular, we obtain a power-law tail distribution of the time lapses between the passage of consecutive individuals. In addition, we show that this improvement leads to new features where the particles’ rotation acquires great significance."enPEATONESMULTITUDESSIMULACIONDINAMICA DE FLUIDOSArtículos de Publicaciones Periódicas
