  • Abstract
    This paper studies the method and process of multi-agent modeling of city emergency evacuation, and we conduct the simulation experiment based on the multi-agent city emergency evacuation framework. The experiment is based on spatial network distribution, and studies the pattern of how to choose shelter and evacuation path when people are in the disaster area. The prototype system builds the city road network model. And based on Repast S, we establish agent-based model on the refugee, human and disaster source. Furthermore, we make use of this prototype to study the impact on the evacuation result made by the traffic capacity, human´s ability of information access and recognizing the disaster area.
