Comparing First-Order Microscopic and Macroscopic Crowd Models for an Increasing Number of Massive Agents

A comparison between first-order microscopic and macroscopic differential models of crowd dynamics is established for an increasing number N of pedestrians. The novelty is the fact of considering massive agents, namely, particles whose individual mass does not become infinitesimal when N grows. This...
