Simulation of Crowd Escape Under Hazardous Condition

Authors: Peng Wang, Timo Korhonen

This brief report presents a model to characterize evacuees' response to hazardous stimuli during emergency egress, especially in smoke and fire condition. The model is developed in consistency with stress theory, which explains how an organism reacts to environmental stimuli. We integrate the theory in the well-known social-force model and apply the model to simulate crowd evacuation in fire emergency. The algorithm is being tested in FDS+EVAC.
