Abstract: |
There is no
simulation model on evacuation nowadays taking the architectural inducement
into account, which means that most of the architectural environment which influences
the evacuation behavior, is ignored. In this paper a concept model named
AMUSE is presented based on an agent framework, with an agent that is designed
to perceive the architectural environment as various clues, choose the right
one and follow the related actions to evacuate in an underground space like real
human beings would do. To investigate how the architectural clues take effect
during the agent’s decision making process in evacuation, the authors classified 10 types of the architectural foreground clues constituting
a complete architectural vocabulary. In the future work, statistic data from
a series of tests in virtual environments are planned to calibrate the model, which will finally
result in a performance-based evaluation tool for the architect on the
evacuation efficiency of the underground space design. |
