Fire Emergency Evacuation Simulation for Multifamily Buildings

摘要

This report concerns the Fire Emergency Evacuation Simulation for Multifamily Buildings, a deterministic discrete event model for emergency evacuation from living areas of multifamily buildings. It is the final report of the project. It is written in such a fashion that those individuals who wish only general understanding of the model can easily find what they require, while those persons who require a deeper understanding can find all of the information that they need. A general introduction is first to appear. Next appears a section describing background information that a user would require to knowledgeably prepare input. A detailed description of the required input format is next to be given followed by a detailed discussion of the logic behind the various sections of the model as implemented in the program. Three example simulation runs, as well as a listing of the program, also are given.
