N2 - This study introduces an improved Floor Field Model (FFM) that models pedestrians using realistic physical characteristics (size, shape, and posture). Through comparison with other well-known models, the areas of improvement are elucidated. The FFM is a leading microscopic pedestrian model that uses cellular automation (CA), but it does not accurately reflect the physical characteristics of pedestrians, such as their size, shape, and posture. Therefore, it is difficult for the existing FFM to simulate certain phenomena, such as collisions and friction between pedestrians. This study proposes an improved FFM that can simulate these phenomena, and experiments were carried out to compare this model with other models, such as the existing FFM, Simulex, and Pathfinder, to confirm the improvements. Through this experiment, it was confirmed that inter-pedestrian phenomena, such as collisions, friction, and jamming, could be realistically simulated.
