Abstract :
Fire is an increasing cause of casualties in modern life. Many people are killed in fire accidents every year. The worst thing is that people can hardly detect where and when afire will occur. Thus it is difficult to know which evacuation path is effective and safe in advance. In this article, a new system is introduced to simulate evacuation plans in fire accidents in both 2D and 3D, which helps people decide where they should go when a fire breaks out. This system is implemented in agent-based modeling, which makes it more intelligent and flexible.
