Abstract:

Pedestrian evacuation model is the basis of the formulation of safe and efficient evacuation plan, combining particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm with simulated annealing (SA) algorithm, this paper conducts the research of the pedestrian evacuation model in emergency, and through the analysis of the population characteristics in different evacuation stages, a new crowd evacuation model with dynamic parameters based on PSO and SA is proposed. Furthermore, the shortcomings of the previous model are improved, and the impact of obstacles to the evacuation route selection is fully considered, meanwhile, the differences in the location of exit are analyzed. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed model is verified by a crowd evacuation simulation in a building.

Key words: PSO, SA, obstacle avoidance, pedestrian evacuation model
