Blocks contained in the Pedestrian Library palette are the building blocks you will use to construct your flowcharts. As usual, you have blocks that generate pedestrians, control pedestrian flow, process pedestrians.
PedSource | Generates pedestrians. Is usually used as the starting point of the pedestrian flow. | |
PedSink | Disposes of pedestrians. Is usually used as the end point of the pedestrian flow. | |
PedGoTo | Causes pedestrians to go to the specified target. | |
PedService | Simulates how pedestrians are serviced in services. | |
PedWait | Causes pedestrians to wait for a specified time in a specified location. | |
PedSelectOutput | Routes the incoming pedestrians to one of the five output ports depending on specified ratios or conditions. | |
PedEnter | Places pedestrians into the simulated environment. | |
PedExit | Removes pedestrians from the simulated environment. |
The following blocks work with the levels of the model:
PedEscalator | Simulates how pedestrians are transported by an escalator. | |
PedElevator | Simulates how pedestrians are transported by an elevator (lift). | |
PedChangeLevel | Moves pedestrians to a different level. |
The following blocks handle the behavior of pedestrians in groups:
PedGroupAssemble | Organizes groups from sequence of pedestrians on input port. Also used to reassemble groups which have been split by blocks which don’t support groups: pedestrians wait in the given area and leave it in their original group when the whole group arrives. | |
PedGroupChangeFormation | Causes group to change its form to a specified one when group leader passes this block. | |
PedGroupDisassemble | When group leader enters this block, group dissolves, so pedestrians become independent from each other and follow their personal paths. | |
PedSettings | Allows adjusting general parameters related to all Pedestrian Library blocks in the model. |
