Numerical investigation of the effect of macro control measures on epidemic transport via a coupled PDE crowd flow - epidemic spreading dynamics modelNumerical investigation of the effect of macro control measures on epidemic transport via a coupled PDE crowd flow - epidemic spreading dynamics model Peer-Reviewed Journal Publication Δημοσίευση σε Περιοδικό με Κριτές 2025-10-292025enThis work aims to provide an approach to the macroscopic modeling and simulation of pedestrian flow, coupled with contagion spreading, for a numerical investigation of the effect of certain macro-control measures on epidemic transport dynamics. Numerical approximations are considered for the coupled model along with numerical tests and results. In particular, we investigate the effect of employment of different, epidemics transport control measures in real time. Such simulations of disease spreading in a moving crowd can potentially provide valuable information about the risks of infection in relevant situations and support the design of systematic intervention/control measures.Funded by the European Union (ERC, C-NORA, 101088147).
