Agent based simulation for pedestrian movement during panic situation

Evacuation is the movement of people from a dangerous to a safer location. To minimize casualties during a panic situation, building design should consider evacuation plans. An evacuation process is complicated and interrupted by irregular behavior, pedestrians’ or agents’ characteristics, time limi...
