1.8 UNDERSTANDING OFSTIMULATION PROCESS SPACESYNTAXTHEORY

It is a technique for examine the spacial oraganisation of structure and urban setting to understand movement of pedestrian through different places spacial structure arrange and orientationof rooms spaces

Corridors

Based on the idea of

Pedestrian interaction with envirorment both inside and outside subway influence people movement in subway and connectivity of different places

Entrance/exit

Openingsamd connection betwen edges

Network examined

Mathematical Algorithms

primary spatial features pattern that influence acessiblity and mobility

Key data that can be analysed from syntax theory

highly connected spaces are more accessed by pedestrian and tend to have more movement and interaaction

The quantity of people in a particular region is referred to as the density it is used to examine the population density in various parts of the subwaystation . The flow of people can be improved by using this information to locate places with heavy traffic and congestion

Flow describes how people move through a certain location on foot It is used to spot places where people on foot are more likely slow down by examining flow patterns. The design subway station may be improved to ease traffic and enhance pedestrian movement.

Accessibility describes how simple it is for people to go across a certain region. Can pinpoint locations where it's more probable that pedestrians would run into barriers or other obstructions that slow down their destination by analysing accessibility.

Pathway analysis allows to pinpoint places where particular paths are more often taken by people Used to increase pedestrian movement and lessen congestion

About how pedestrians engage with one another and their surroundings can identify locations where pedestrians are more likely to crash or experience problems moving by analysing encounters each room represented as node

Primary element of the urban form that is the structure of the of the urban grid spatial configuration as main “layer” where everything else is generated

Movement pattern of the pedestrian are generated by spatial configuration of subway and distribution of land uses are produced

Basic concept of syntax theory

Base map which consist of built spaces and open spaces with defined pathways for pedestrian movement indentification of important nodes in defined pathways with respect to navigation throughout spaces with intraction to envirorment

Distribution of landuse generate various choices based on multiple users uses the subway. the local grid adapts itself to intensive changes which affects moblity through spaces quantitative analaysis of people passing through each nodes at an specific time during peak hours

As per the inputs from quantative analysis axial map is generated from which following datas above mentioned are extracted example output

PART 2 : CASE STUDY

2.1 INTRODUCTION

GANGNAM STATION,SEOUL, SOUTH KOREA

Gangnam is a station on Line 2 of the Seoul Metropolitan Subway The station is located within the Greater Gangnam Area between the Gangnam and Seocho Districts of Seoul, South Korea. The station is the busiest station on the Seoul Metropolitan Subway, serving over 100,000 daily passengers on average

Analysis of pedestrian behaviour

Analysis of pedestrian behaviour

Daily business travelers (gangnam houses houses many business coperations) peak hourduration each user group shoppers (known for high end shopping districts such as garosu gil and apgujeong)

Students (it houses various school to its close proximity)

Tourists: uses subway stations to get

Night owls

There are also some subway around the city users who prefer to travel during the late-night hours to 9:00pm 10:00amto 9 pm to 11 am

Peak Hour Duringweek Days

As per the graph of different user groups highest pedestrian density use gaangnam subway station at 8:00am to 10:00am in morning and 5:00pm to 7:00pm in evening by various user groups with different activities. Based on this duration futher study will be processed to study the perception of pedestrian in subways

2.2AREAOFSTUDY

The study area was fixed to first floor basement level which houses the entrance and ticket counters. this station is chossen because of various user group using this station with varoius destinations which exihibits variety of space usage pattern It also consist underground shopping centers , two station which is refered as transit hubs with connection to underground and other means of transportation.

Gangnam station is located in the second basement while the ticket gates and station entrances are located on the first basement level .Instead of the physical layout of Gangnam Station itself, transfer locations in earlier stations have more of an impact on pedestrian behaviours on the platform. In order to concentrate on the B1 level, where pedestrian behaviours are more strongly tied to the physical arrangement of the station area, researchers eliminated the B2 level from the study.

For those who need to transfer, there is a corridor on the B1 level that runs from the subterranean business district to the Sinbundang Line. People occasionally utilise the B1 level to cross the junction because the station has eight entrances but the road intersection above it lacks crosswalks
