Fire hazards are a big threat to human life and property safety. The U.S. fire statistics reveal that, in 2017 alone, 1,319,500 fires caused 3400 deaths and 14,670 injuries, which resulted in a loss of $23 billion [1].

Application of the best evacuation model of deep learning in the design of public structures
Image and Vision Computing, 2020Evacuation behavior is an important factor which must be considered in the design of public structures. With the continuous complexity of structure, more and more factors should be considered in evacuation.

A modified social force model with different categories of pedestrians for subway station evacuation
, 2021With the extensive construction of rail tunnels, the subway has gradually become the most widely used means of public transport. As important transportation hubs, the evacuation capacity of subway stations is especially significant.

Techniques in Coloproctology, 2005
Because of the drawbacks of defecography (radiation hazard and lack of standardization), a new method by introital sonography is described to assess the evacuation phenomenon in women as an alternative to contrast radiographic studies.Ten consecutive women (mean age, 41 years; range, 33-50; mean parity, 2; range, 1-4) without evacuation disturbances ...

Effects of shadow evacuation on megaregion evacuations
Transportation Research Part D: Transport and Environment, 2020Abstract Transportation systems serve important roles during emergencies, in particular for evacuations. However, efficient travel during these life-and-death scenarios can be adversely impacted by external conditions, such as unnecessary and unneeded travel.

A study of group effects in pedestrian crowd evacuation: Experiments, modelling and simulation
, 2021The presence of social groups in pedestrian crowds can have a substantial effect on the overall evacuation process. However, crowds are mostly simplified as a collection of individuals, and the influence of grouping has not been widely considered in ...

The sooty smoke generated from fire reduces visibility at fire scenes. This not only slows down evacuation, but also affects the mental states of evacuees. A series of evacuation experiments were conducted in a room under different visibility conditions.
