Simulation of Personnel Evacuation Based on Cellular Automata: To Consider Individual Character and Following Behavior

The key of personnel evacuation simulation is the model establishment. In order to make the simulation results closer to reality, the paper analyzes the main influence factors of personnel evacuation in case of an emergency. In consideration of the mutual influence caused by conflict during evacuation, it proposes the mutations of the crowd system structure as well as the analysis of mobile power factor, provides the physical space model of stochastic obstacles, immovable obstacles, and designs the evacuation model of stochastic cellular automata located nearest to the exit. Experiments show that the simulation system tenders the effective reference value for architectural design, interior temporary goods emplacement, maximum personnel saturated number.
