Abstract

To solve the problem that the crowd evacuating process model with cellular automata is quite different from the reality crowd evacuating process, the crowd evacuating process model with cellular automata based on safety training is addressed. The crowd evacuating process based on safety training is simulated and predicted, and the result is very close to the reality. Using the vertical way to place the shelves gets both a higher escaping rate and a larger shelf area that the total area is up to 216m2, and the average death number is 4.2 by safety training when the fire level being 2.
