A mean-field model is presented to mimic the pedestrian channel flow with a bottleneck. The pedestrian flow is … described by the mean-field rate equation on the square lattice. The dynamical transition from the free flow to the choking flow … is studied by carrying out a numerical simulation for the mean-field rate equation under open boundary conditions. The …
