The number of severe incidents involving large
pedestrian crowds has increased in recent decades; causes include overcrowded
public transport stations in industrialized countries experiencing
reurbanization and increased transit use and a greater frequency of large
gatherings, whether organized (e.g., sports events) or not (e.g., Facebook
parties, political rallies). Tragedies, like the one in Saudi Arabia in
2015, create societal upset and show the need for improved management of large
gatherings.
