Simulation model of pedestrian evacuation in high-rise building: Considering group behaviors and real-time fire

Abstract

Many fire evacuation models have been proposed in recent years to better simulate such as an emergency situation. However, fire has different characters in high-rise building, and is affected by all kinds of factors. Evacuation of persons in case of fire is very complex, the environment will affected it, the individual psychological quality and physical quality, real time fire and so on. The numerical model based on cellular automata is presented, considering group behavior and real time fire development in the paper, and simulation experiments show the model is on the brink of reality and demonstrate its applicability and validity.
