  • Pressure Measurement during Physical Contact

    Hello Everyone,

    I am doing research on crowd movement to come up with optimum or reasonable num
    ber of people in a system. Applications involve the design of corridors, walkwa
    ys, stadiums, congregational areas etc.

    I am interested in finding a methodology to measure the force or pressure on th
    e body during crowd movement, specially when there is pressure by direct skin b
    ody contact or pushing etc. I am looking for a practical method that would allo
    w me to relate the pressure to the number of people in the system at a particul
    ar time.

    Thankyou,
