Evacuation simulation supporting high level behaviour-based agents
(Elsevier, 2013-06)
Computer based models describing pedestrian behaviour in an emergency evacuation play a vital role in the development of active strategies that minimise the evacuation time when a closed area, with a relatively small number ...
Validation of an agent-based building evacuation model with a school drill
(2018)
An effective evacuation of buildings is critical to minimize casualties due to natural or anthropogenic hazards. Building evacuation models help in preparing for future events and shed light on possible shortcomings of ...
Simulating Behaviours to Face up an Emergency Evacuation
(Advanced Academic Publisher, 2014-02)
Computer based models describing pedestrian behavior in an emergency evacuation play a vital role in the development of active strategies that minimize the evacuation time when a closed area must be evacuated. The reference ...
Seismic risk assessment of human evacuations in buildings
(National Information Centre of Earthquake Engineering, 2017)
Major earthquakes may require people to evacuate immediately from buildings as recently observed in the 2015 Mw 8.3 Illapel earthquake in Chile. The building may suffer damage, thus affecting the evacuation process. Perhaps ...
Sequential evacuation strategy for multiple rooms toward the same means of egress
(Papers In Physics, 2014-11)
This paper examines different evacuation strategies for systems where several rooms evacuate through the same means of egress, using microscopic pedestrian simulation. As a case study, a medium-rise office building is ...
Microscopic dynamics of pedestrian evacuation
(Elsevier Science, 2005-12)
In the present work, we studied the room evacuation problem using the social force model introduced by Helbing and coworkers. This model allows to explore different degree of panic. The 'faster is slower' effect induced ...
On disasters evacuation modeling: From disruptive to slow-response decisions
(ELSEVIER, 2022)
Decision-making evacuation modeling for natural hazards has always been complex due to the uncertainty of variables affecting it. One of the most relevant existing assumptions for this kind of simulation is the use of ...
Morphological and dynamical aspects of the room evacuation process
(Elsevier Science, 2007-12)
We study the evacuation of a set of 200 pedestrians from a room under a state of panic. The dynamics of the pedestrians is given by the Social Force Model. The degree of panic is controlled by a parameter vd which represents ...
The role of panic in the room evacuation process
(World Scientific, 2006-03)
In the present work we studied the room evacuation problem using the social force model introduced by Helbing and coworkers. The "faster is slower" effect induced by panic was analyzed. It could be explained in terms of ...
Numerical analysis of a modified evacuated tubes solar collector
(2012)
The need for renewable energy sources, facing the consequences of Climate Change, results in growing investment for solar collectors’ use. Research in this field has accompanied this expansion and evacuated tube solar ...
