Many countries have experienced a lot of loss of life and material losses in many incidents due to natural or technological disasters. Planned and systematic action is required to manage emergencies. For this, a successful plan must be prepared. In order for the emergency management to be successful, it is necessary to successfully evacuate people from the building in the event of a disaster. Emergency evacuation plans, evacuation drills and training should be provided. Simulations and models have often been one of the methods people use to study events. How solutions should be created for the events encountered were examined with simulations. With emergency evacuation simulations, an emergency management plan can be made close to reality. This study was carried out in a university building. In this 3-storey building, there are students, lecturers and working personnel. The best emergency evacuation plan to be applied in an emergency has been researched. It was aimed to create a plan with the shortest evacuation time by making experiments with the simulation program. Pathfinder simulation program was used in this study. In the first part, 11 scenarios related to the routing variability to the emergency exit doors were created. It is aimed to create a plan with the best evacuation time. In the second part, 5 scenarios were created about the situations where the emergency exit doors are locked and the doors are unusable for certain periods. The effects of these disruptions on the evacuation period were examined.

This paper follows the basic principles of taxi dynamics and uses an agent-based modelling approach (ABM) to simulate the underlying road network, vehicles and passenger situations in an urban environment and to carry out evaluations. First, based on two evaluation metrics: passenger travel time and total number of passengers transported, a comparison is made between the ride-hailing system (RH) and the system with ridesharing under different supply and demand rates, revealing the impact of ridesharing on system efficiency at urban scale. Then, in the ridesharing system (RS), four levels of supply are taken as examples, and passenger travel time is disaggregated to quantify how the definition of vicinity in the matching process affects the passenger travel time, passenger waiting time and vehicle detour time in a given city. Finally, a summary of the level of supply and the range of vicinity where ridesharing can be effective is presented in terms of the total distance travelled by the system. From a city management perspective, these results can help in the analysis and planning of efficient transport services.

“…In total, 15 evacuation experiments were conducted in a double decker train in Czech Republic and 91 passengers were called for the experiments that were conducted under various scenarios by varying widths, exit types and exit methods. Wang [12] studied the evacuation of passengers from the two floor metro station subway and station hall using pathfinder simulation model. In another study [13], an agent-based simulation model is used to handle the evacuation procedure in transit stations for various scenarios.…”

This research study provides a new framework to optimize pedestrian simulation parameters required to replicate emergency evacuation conditions specifically observed in high rise buildings, passenger vehicles and transport terminals. The simulation experiments are performed with generalised social force model in VISWALK simulation environment. The data required for optimization are obtained by conducting several evacuation experiments. The results indicate that pedestrian behavioural aspects, such as the relaxation time, distance from the other pedestrian and force exerted by closest pedestrians, have a significant impact on total evacuation time. The outcomes are in consistence with field observations and the calibrated parameters would help in simulating future scenarios including building level simulations and further simulating emergency evacuation of passengers from transport terminals and vehicles.
