I first read this on New Scientist a couple of weeks ago. Link here: http://www.newscientist.com/article/mg21729055.700-mosh-pit-physics-could-aid-disaster-planning.html http://www.newscientist.com/article/mg21729055.700-mosh-pit-.... It mentions that the physics studied here could have practical applications in emergency planning. Answering questions like, "How does a chaotic crowd behave in an emergency?".
