Abstract

In order to study the crowd evacuation process in complex subway stations, this paper proposes a social group perception evacuation model based on the social group evacuation model and the perception evacuation model, combined with the spatial index algorithm and the social group random algorithm, and takes a real subway station as an example to simulate the crowd evacuation process. Through the simulation results, the evacuation bottlenecks in the subway station are analyzed and the influence of social groups on evacuation efficiency is also verified. The results show that subway gates, fenced aisles and exits are important bottlenecks for crowd evacuation in subway stations, and the social groups will reduce the evacuation efficiency. This model can more truly restore the interaction behavior between evacuees and the environment in the evacuation process, and is suitable for the real complex subway stations.
