Proximal Policy Optimization for Crowd Evacuation in Complex Environments—A Metaverse Approach at Krung Thep Aphiwat Central Terminal, Thailand

IEEE Access
Efficient crowd evacuation from railway platforms is critical for passenger safety during emergencies. This study introduces a novel dynamic emergency evacuation route generator using the Proximal Policy Optimization (PPO) algorithm within a custom-built

Dissecting the dissection laboratory: Elements for designing a human anatomy laboratory

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract The human anatomy dissection laboratory is a critical component of anatomical and medical education. Development, maintenance, and stocking of these laboratory spaces have unique demands, with all of the challenges in running a laboratory with Biosafety Laboratory Level 2 (BSL‐2) classification, housing a large volume of tissues saturated with

Study on evacuation simulation under crowd-diversion condition

Advances in Mechanical Engineering, 2018
With the increasing number of domestic buildings, the importance of safety evacuation in case of fire in the buildings has been aware. Occupants in a building will crowd at exit(s) when they evacuate in disasters.

Free Trade Zones and Corporate ESG: Evidence From a Quasi‐Natural Experiment in China

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines how China's Pilot Free Trade Zones (FTZs) influence corporate ESG performance. Using a staggered difference‐in‐differences model on Chinese listed firms from 2009 to 2024, we combine coarsened exact matching (CEM) and geography‐based instrumental variables to ensure robust identification.

An extended car following approach using agent based model on evacuation system of micro traffic [PDF]

, 2009
We proposed an extended car-following approach on evacuation system of micro traffic. It is based on the agent model. Parameter which is owned by the agent is the velocity.

Population Pharmacokinetics and Detection Times of Betamethasone After Intravenous, Intramuscular, and Intranasal Jet Administration of Betamethasone Sodium Phosphate in Horses

Drug Testing and Analysis, EarlyView.
Betamethasone concentrations in 20 horses from Japan and Germany following IV, IM, and INJ administration of betamethasone phosphate were analyzed using population pharmacokinetic modeling. For IV administration of 0.04 mg/kg q24 h, IPC and IUC were 0.012 and 0.31 ng/mL, respectively; the IUC approximated the IFHA urine ISL (0.20 ng/mL).
