Modeling pedestrian evacuation movement in a swaying ship

open access: yes, 2015
With the advance in living standard, cruise travel has been rapidly expanding around the world in recent years. The transportation of passengers in water has also made a rapid development.

Pedestrians moving in dark: Balancing measures and playing games on lattices [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We present two conceptually new modeling approaches aimed at describing the motion of pedestrians in obscured corridors: * a Becker-D\"{o}ring-type dynamics * a probabilistic cellular automaton model.

Network Modeling of Hurricane Evacuation Using Data-Driven Demand and Incident-Induced Capacity Loss Models

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Transportation, 2021
The development of a hurricane evacuation simulation model is a crucial task in emergency management and planning. Two major issues affect the reliability of an evacuation model: one is estimations of evacuation traffic based on socioeconomic ...

Geographic Information Systems, Evacuation Planning and Execution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Evacuation planning has for decades relied on the results derived from mathematical modeling and scenario development. While there exist many mathematical and simulation models dealing with evacuation planning most lack one or more critical components ...

Understanding wildfire evacuees’ perceived safety on their evacuation route: A study of the 2018 Camp Fire

open access: yesTransportation Research Interdisciplinary Perspectives
Wildfire evacuations are expected to increase, including evacuations from fast-moving wildfires. Risk perception is an important element that determines evacuee decision-making. However, research has not looked at perceptions of safety while evacuees are

Spatial analysis of tsunami hazard based on numerical models and seismicity data in Pacitan Coastal Areas, Indonesia [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences
The Pacitan Regency, located on the southern coast of Java adjacent to the Indian Ocean, is susceptible to tsunami disasters due to its geographical location.

The Effect of Integrating Travel Time

open access: yes, 2012
This contribution demonstrates the potential gain for the quality of results in a simulation of pedestrians when estimated remaining travel time is considered as a determining factor for the movement of simulated pedestrians. This is done twice: once for

Handling congestion in crowd motion modeling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We address here the issue of congestion in the modeling of crowd motion, in the non-smooth framework: contacts between people are not anticipated and avoided, they actually occur, and they are explicitly taken into account in the model.

Mapping the evolution of mitochondrial complex I through structural variation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Respiratory complex I (CI) is crucial for bioenergetic metabolism in many prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of a conserved set of core subunits and additional accessory subunits that vary depending on the organism. Here, we categorize CI subunits from available structures to map the evolution of CI across eukaryotes. Respiratory complex I (CI)

Lexicographically Maximum Contraflow Problem with Vertex Capacities

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 2021
The contraflow approach has been extensively considered in the literature for modeling evacuations and has been claimed, due to its lane-direction-reversal capability, as an efficient idea to speed up the evacuation process.
