Modelling Human Behaviour With the Fire Risk Assessment Tool CRISP

摘要

CRISP is a Monte-Carlo model of entire fire scenarios. The sub-models representing physical 'objects' include rooms, doors, windows, detectors and alarms, items of furniture etc, hot smoke layers, and people. The stochastic aspects include starting conditions such as windows and doors open or closed, the number, type and location of people within the building, the location of the fire and type of burning item. The fire and smoke spread are simulated by a 2-layer zone model. The simulation uses a variable timestep in order to achieve maximum efficiency while still maintaining a numerically stable solution.
