Application of context-mediated behavior to a multi-agent pedestrian flow model (PEDFLOW
Developers of pedestrian models often overlook the fact that pedestrians are subjected to a multitude of influences when walking. The majority of existing models only focus on...
Walking, talking and looking: effects of divided attention on gaze behaviour and visual search performance in a real-world environment
Journal Article
Wincenciak, J., Egan, C. D., & Willis, A. (2010)
Walking, talking and looking: effects of divided attention on gaze behaviour and visual search performance in a real-world environment. Perception, 39, 35
Visually-guided behaviour in the laboratory may not always reflect that in larger-scale environments, using more realistic tasks. (eg Smith et al, 2008 Cogn Process 9 121-126)...

Willis, A., Kukla, R., & Kerridge, J. (2000, September)
Developing the behavioural rules for an agent-based model of pedestrian movement. Paper presented at 25th European Transport Congress, Cambridge, UK
The PEDFLOW project aims to develop a realistic and flexible planning tool capable of simulating the effects of microscopic environmental layout on various aspects of pedestri...

Journal Article
Willis, A., Gjersoe, N., Havard, C., Kerridge, J. & Kukla, R. (2004)
Human movement behaviour in urban spaces: Implications for the design and modelling of effective pedestrian environments. Environment and planning. B, Planning & design. 31, 805-828. doi:10.1068/b3060. ISSN 1472-3417
Despite a burgeoning research effort directed at the design and modelling of effective urban spaces for pedestrians, remarkably little is known about how pedestrians actually ...
Effects of installing a marked crosswalk on road crossing behaviour and perceptions of the environment.
Journal Article
Havard, C., & Willis, A. (2012)
Effects of installing a marked crosswalk on road crossing behaviour and perceptions of the environment. Transportation Research Part F: Traffic Psychology and Behaviour, 15, 249-260. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.trf.2011.12.007
A two-pronged study was conducted to investigate (a) pedestrians’ road-crossing behaviour and (b) perceptions of the walking environment, both before and after the installatio...
PEDFLOW: development of an autonomous agent model of pedestrian flow.
Journal Article
Kukla, R., Kerridge, J., Willis, A. & Hine, J. (2001)
PEDFLOW: development of an autonomous agent model of pedestrian flow. Transportation research record. 1774, 11-17. doi:10.3141/1774-02. ISSN 0361-1981
The paper discusses the need for an autonomous agent approach for the modeling of pedestrians in urban
environments and places PEDFLOW in the context of existing models. PEDFL...
