- Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to develop a new pedestrian-following model based on the properties of the aircraft boarding process. The passengers' motion trail, the number of interfaces, the total aircraft boarding time, the wasted time that is resulted by the interfaces and the effective aircraft boarding time are investigated in detail. The numerical results illustrate that the new model can qualitatively describe some dynamic properties of the aircraft boarding process.
