Potential Field Cellular Automata Model for Pedestrian Evacuation in a Domain with a Ramp
We propose a potential field cellular automata model with a pushing force field to simulate the pedestrian evacuation in a domain with a ramp. We construct a cost potential depending on the ramp angle and introduce a function to evaluate the pushing force, which is related to the cost and the desire...
