Modelling large-scale evacuation of music festivals
E. Ronchi - Lund University
(in lingua inglese)
This work explored the use of a multi-agent continuous evacuation modelling approach to simulate a case study of largescale evacuation scenarios at music festivals. Evacuation models had sufficient flexibility to represent the behavioural aspects affecting the evacuation process during escalating and cascading scenarios. In particular, the study of the peopleevacuation time curves produced by evacuation models, coupled with the visual analysis of the evacuation process, allowed for the identification of the predominant factors affecting evacuation (e.g., delay times, flows through exits, etc.) and potential measures that could improve safety levels.
