In general, fire and evacuation simulators are used independently to diagnose the safety of building. Because this method does not reflect the movement of pedestrians considering fire spread, it is difficult to expect diagnosis of safety with high accuracy. In this study, we propose the simulation method that can describe the movement of pedestrians in the fire emergency. Our method reflects the FDS fire spread data into FFM and explains the situation in which a pedestrian recognize a fire and escapes to a safe route. This study consists of data linkage between FDS and FFM and development of improved FFM. Experiment of the proposed method is progressed using the EgresSIM. Simulation result shows that the number of evacuees on each exit is affected by the presence or absence of fire and it was confirmed that the evacuation time increase and the bottleneck phenomenon deepened by exit.

This study is intended to verify the efficiency of the information system by using the navigation application in case of fire. In the demonstration scenario simulation, it was assumed that a fire occurred 6th floor in Korea Institute of Industrial Design Promotion located in C city, K province. Eighty juniors students from K University's department of paramedics of science participated. As a result of the experiment, the demonstration simulation using the navigation application showed that the evacuation time was faster than the case of evacuation guidance in a fire situation. The need for a fire prevention system and fire prevention awareness before and after the implementation of the demonstration scenario simulation increased the need for a fire prevention system and fire prevention awareness score after the experiment.

This study examined how the fire evacuation induction service system using a smartphone navigation application in the event of a fire affects the fire evacuation time, and the following conclusions were drawn. 1. The evacuation time was reduced by 22 seconds when the navigation application was used in computer scenario simulation. Even in the demonstration simulation, the evacuation time was reduced by 40 seconds when the navigation application was used. This indicates that the navigation application is effective in shortening the evacuation time in case of fire. 2. As a result of the demonstration scenario simulation, the time until the end of evacuation was 39 seconds faster in the case of evacuation guidance than in the case where it was not conducted. 3. No bottlenecks occurred in the evacuation route during the demonstration scenario simulation. As a result, there was a difference in the time required to complete the evacuation between the computer scenario simulation and the demonstration scenario simulation.

Purpose: In fire case, nursing hospitals are subject to considerable restrictions on evacuation due to the characteristics of occupants and vulnerable elements of buildings, it is important to make evacuation device for vulunerabale person, and need how to intend to increase the efficiency of evacuation by fire and evacuation simulation with helper Method: The smoke characteristics were analyzed by time through fire simulation, finally, the number of helpers according to the day and night was entered, and the evacuation completion time was compared and analyzed using the evacuation simulation. Result: It was found that the evacuation time was shortened by more than 20% when the evacuation assistance device was used for the vulnerable, and the evacuation time was delayed by almost 70% in case of a fire at night compared to the daytime. Conclusion: If the horizontal and vertical evacuation device are effectively utilized in actual fire situations, a strategy appropriate to the situation is deemed necessary. It is expected that evacuation efficiency will increase based on the use of horizontal evacuation evacuation device and vertical evacuation device by developing evacuation manuals

다중 이용시설, 학교, 주택 등 사람이 많이 이용하는 곳은 화재 발생 빈도가 높을 뿐만 아니라 대피하기가 어렵고, 기존의 비상등 표시 방법, 일회성 대피 안내 등으로 인해 화재 상황의 다양한 변수에 효과적으로 대처하기 어렵다. 본 논문에서는 디지털 트윈(Digital Twin) 기술을 기반으로 다양한 센서를 통해 인식된 화재 요소를 반영한 화재 대응 및 피난 시뮬레이션(Fire Dynamic Simulator & Pathfinder)을 통해 안전한 대피 경로를 도출하여 안내하는 시스템을 설계한다. 제시하는 방법은 화재 상황에 능동적으로 대처하기 위해 실시간 인원변동 및 변화하는 화재변수에 대비 할 수 있으며, 상황에 따른 적극적인 대피 훈련과 실제 상황에서의 긴급한 상황에서의 대피경로 도출과 안내에 활용할 수 있다.

Many pedestrian or fire evacuation models have been studied last decades for modeling evacuation behaviors or analysing building structures under emergency situations. However, currently developed models do not consider the differences of visibility of pedestrians by obstacles such as furniture, wall, etc. The visibility of pedestrians is considered one of the important factors that affect the evacuation behavior, leading to making simulation results more realistic. In order to incorporate pedestrian's visibility into evacuation simulation, we should be able to give different walking speeds according to differences of visibility. We improved the existing floor field model based on cellular automata in order to implement the visibility. Using the space syntax theory, we showed how we split the indoor spaces depending on the different visibilities created by different levels of structural depths. Then, we improved the algorithm such that pedestrians have different speeds instead of simultaneous movement to other cells. Also, in order for developing a real time simulation system integrated w ith indoor sensors later, we present a process to build a 3D simulator using a spatial DBMS. The proposed algorithm is tested using a campus building.

This paper proposed that the method be searched for optimal route of evacuation by algorithm using potential field in specific situation, fire. When robot met an obstacle to be indicated it to ignition point, the installed sensor could be detected the point in restricted area. In according as the data of a fire detection sensor and a sensor complex in a building, the information was transmitted to server which computed optimal route of evacuation by algorithm using potential field. After that, it was able to blow a siren and mark the safe-path with using wireless device such as smart-phone. It was confirmed that the proposed method in functional test, fire emergency evacuation algorithm using potential field, was advanced in circumstance of simulation.

Recently, due to global warming, it is easily exposed to various disasters such as fire, flood, and earthquake. In particular, large-scale disasters have continuously been occurring in crowded areas such as traditional markets, facilities for the elderly and children, and public facilities where various people stay. Purpose: This study aims to detect a fire occurred in crowded facilities early in the event to analyze and provide an optimal evacuation route using big data and advanced technology. Method: The researchers propose a new algorithm through context-aware 3D object model technology and A* algorithm optimization and propose a scenario-based optimal evacuation route selection technique. Result: Using the HPA* E algorithm, the evacuation simulation in the event of a fire was reproduced as a 3D model and the optimal evacuation route and evacuation time were calculated for each scenario. Conclusion: It is expected to reduce fatalities and injuries through the evacuation induction technique that enables evacuation of the building in the shortest path by analyzing in real-time via fire detection sensors that detects the temperature, flame, and smoke.
