Evacuation and Pedestrian Modelling in Stadia
In this chapter, techniques and considerations for reducing uncertainty in the modelling the movement of stadium attendees are discussed. The current generation of commercially available pedestrian modelling revolves around agent-based social force models (the Artificial Intelligence of the movement model so to be). The creation, programming, and modifications of the modelled environment and movement engine are critical to overcoming uncertainties. These theorems and algorithms are discussed with a presentation of historical narrative on the subject. Benefits of using project-specific data to reduce uncertainty in the models are demonstrated, and the potential and needed considerations for extending the model through Software Development Kit capabilities are discussed. By understanding the impacts of programming and modifications, more models with higher certainty can be built which can include consideration for disabled persons. The construction of a stadium model will be explained with appropriate limitations described. A suite of scenarios will be considered to explore future demographic trends in stadium and their effect on evacuation.
