  1. 1. Security lighting in horse riding halls: Development of a simulation-led testing methodology in VR

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Energi och byggnadsdesign; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljö

    Author : Sheikh Rishad Ahmmad; [2022]
    Keywords : Security lighting; horse riding halls; mesopic vision; Virtual Reality; object tracking; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Security lighting plays a vital role for safe evacuation during an emergency such as power outage or a fire related incidence. Installing a security lighting system properly is more crucial for a horse riding facility for two reasons. READ MORE

  3. 2. Visibility in Smoke With Different Extinction Coefficients

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

    Author : Lea Elhokayem; [2022]
    Keywords : Visibility; smoke; exit sign; extinction coefficient; visibility constant; evacuation; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Visibility in smoke has since the 1970s gained some attention, mostly after Tadahisa Jin ran the experiments which helped him develop todays widely used visibility equation. By showing that visibility can be assumed to be inversely proportional to the extinction coefficient by a visibility constant (equal to 8 for light emitting sign and 3 for light reflecting), Jin opened up new doors for researchers who were testing out his theory by going around experimenting in different ways and also by showing that there is way for more research to be done.

  4. 3. Simulating Effects of Agent Velocity Changes on Crowd Behavior During Fire Emergency Evacuations

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Charlie Mårtensson; Jacob Brännström; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Fire emergencies are both deadly and difficult to accurately model in real life. Computer-simulated crowds provide a way to observe the possible outcome of a fire emergency evacuation without endangering real human subjects. READ MORE

  5. 4. The Impact of Social Distancing on Evacuations using Crowd Simulations

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Emrik Hydén; [2021]
    Keywords : Crowd; evacuation; simulation; social distance; COVID19; Folkmassa; evakuering; simulering; social distansering; COVID19;

    Abstract : During pandemics such as the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID19), some government agencies might recommend that citizens keep distance to other people when moving in public environments; this distance is often referred to as social distancing. Since social distancing limits how people are allowed to move in an environment, it could prove to become an obstacle during situations such as evacuations. READ MORE

  6. 5. Pedestrian trajectories on a 90° turn in a corridor: A non-immersive virtual reality study.

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

    Author : Leidy Marcela Correa; [2021]
    Keywords : Virtual Reality; Social Influence; Trajectories; Evacuation; Corridors.; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : When an emergency occurs, bottlenecks can emerge at the corners of corridors. Therefore, it is essential to understand how people move through complex geometries during evacuation to improve architectural designs. READ MORE
