Of the many crowd behavior models, very few have been used in assisting crowd
management practice. This lack of usage is partly due to crowd management involving a …

Exit choice is vital to pedestrians' survival during evacuations. This paper presents the
results of a VR experiment and a field experiment to study pedestrian exit choice behaviour …

Although understanding wayfinding behaviour in complex buildings is important to ensure
pedestrian safety, the state of the art predominantly investigated pedestrian movement in …

This paper proposes an extended Floor-Field (FF) model to study the pedestrian evacuation
dynamics with the influence of the fire and the smoke spreading. The spreading of smoke is …

Effective indoor wayfinding in the event of an emergency is key to guaranteeing safe and
timely evacuation. However, despite the increasing number of evacuation studies, only a …

With the extension of the subway network and the increase in passenger flow, higher traffic
pressure and risk level have occurred. Adopting appropriate guidance strategies is a critical …

This article presents an interdisciplinary study of physical and social psychological effects on
crowd dynamics based on a series of bottleneck experiments. Bottlenecks are of particular …

The performance-based approach using Required Safety Egress Time/Available Safety
Egress Time concept is the most common method in fire safety evaluation. However, this …

Exit choice is critical to saving lives during a building evacuation. Numerous studies have
examined how environmental factors, social interactions, and individuals' internal factors …

In recent years, stampede accidents have occurred frequently, resulting in significant
casualties and property losses. In this paper, an extended cellular automata model is …
