Indoor guided evacuation: TIN for graph generation and crowd evacuation

open access: yesGeomatics, Natural Hazards & Risk, 2016
This paper presents two complementary methods: an approach to compute a network data-set for indoor space of a building by using its two-dimensional (2D) floor plans and limited semantic information, combined with an optimal crowd evacuation method.

Entropy-Based Crowd Evacuation Modeling With Seeking Behavior of Social Groups

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2021
Emergency crowd evacuation, especially in congested indoor scenes, is an important issue in public areas' daily management. Computer simulation is a widely adopted technique to study crowd evacuations and help design reasonable emergence plans due to its

Research on the Influence of Narrow and Long Obstacles with Regular Configuration on Crowd Evacuation Efficiency Based on Tri-14 Model with an Example of Supermarket

open access: yesFire, 2022
Regular shelves configuration forms unique characteristics of internal obstacles in a supermarket. It is crucial to study the crowd evacuation affected by obstacles during accidents or disasters in supermarkets as assembly occupancies.

VELOS : a VR platform for ship-evacuation analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Virtual Environment for Life On Ships (VELOS) is a multi-user Virtual Reality (VR) system that aims to support designers to assess (early in the design process) passenger and crew activities on a ship for both normal and hectic conditions of operations ...

Reasoning about crowd evacuations as emergent phenomena when using participatory computational models

open access: yesFrontiers in Education, 2023
How do students apply systems thinking to make sense of a computational model of crowd evacuation? We developed a participatory simulation in which users play the role of evacuees that move through a narrow passageway.

Study on Group Movement Characteristics in Stairwell of High-Rise Buildings

open access: yesBuildings, 2022
In order to cope with limited land availability and the increasing urban population, more high-rise buildings are being built throughout cities, but this has also led to new challenges in the emergency evacuation of people.

Simulating the Effects of Gate Machines on Crowd Traffic Based on the Modified Social Force Model

open access: yesMathematics, 2023
Gate machines, such as ticket gates in stations and secure gates in office buildings, are very common in people’s daily lives. On the one hand, the passage between the gates is not wide enough for pedestrians to pass through, which may affect the traffic

Real Time Building Evacuation Modeling with an Improved Cellular Automata Method and Corresponding IoT System Implementation

open access: yesBuildings, 2022
Facility emergence evacuation is often a complicated process under extreme conditions. Most of the buildings today use pre-installed signages to guide the emergence evacuation.

A configurable agent-based crowd model with generic behaviour effect representation mechanism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Most of the existing crowd models were designed for specific behaviors or scenarios (e.g., emergency evacuations and bi-directional crowd flows). Significant modifications were often required to accommodate new behaviors or new scenarios.
