Abstract
Starting from Social Forces models, the homogenization of variables and fixed parameters, different architectural solutions were simulated and compared for emergency emptying of areas with large public. The results show that small adjustments in the input data generate divergent responses, indicating that the effectiveness of evacuations depends on multiple variables.
