The simulation of pedestrian dynamics is a consolidated area of application for agent-based based models; however generally the presence of groups and particular relationships among pedestrians is treated in a simplistic way. This work describes an innovative agent-based based approach encapsulating in the pedestrian's behavioural model effects representing both proxemics and a simplified account of influences related to the presence of groups in the crowd. The model is tested in a simple scenario to evaluate the effectiveness of mechanisms to preserve groups cohesion maintaining a plausible overall crowd dynamic.

Abstract
The simulation of pedestrian dynamics is a consolidated area of application for agent-based based models; however generally the presence of groups and particular relationships among pedestrians is treated in a simplistic way. This work describes an innovative agent-based based approach encapsulating in the pedestrian's behavioural model effects representing both proxemics and a simplified account of influences related to the presence of groups in the crowd. The model is tested in a simple scenario to evaluate the effectiveness of mechanisms to preserve groups cohesion maintaining a plausible overall crowd dynamic.
