This paper pertains to the study of finite-time control of one dimensional crowd evacuation system. Benefiting from the research of fluid dynamics and vehicle traffic, a one dimensional crowd evacuation system is constructed, whose density-velocity relationship is represented by a diffusion model. In order to deal with the nondirectionality of crowd movement, the free flow speed is chosen as a control variable. Since the control variable is included in a partial derivative, it increases the difficulty of designing the controller. In this paper, finite-time controller is designed, which not only guarantees the effective evacuation, but also obtains the estimation of evacuation time. Then, finite-time tracking problem is solved, which makes the density converge to a given density. Finally, numerical examples illustrate the effectiveness of the controllers.
