Abstract

This paper discusses Burger’s equation to be used in modelling a crowd with traffic approach using conservation laws and focuses on a moving mesh method that is applied to the solution of hyperbolic equations. A mesh consists of nodes (points) at specific locations in space that are connected to form elements. The moving mesh method is developed utilizing monitor functions to drive the mesh motion and is based on equidistribution ideas. The method is derived in multi dimensions from a conservation of monitor function principle and from this initial principle a conservation law for the monitor function is derived. Numerical results for the moving mesh methods to the Burger’s equation with several values ofe , including when e =0 or inviscid Burger’ equation is presented.
