Abstract:

Aiming at the problem of dynamic planning of evacuation paths in comprehensive building fires, with the shortest escape time required for evacuees as the goal, considering the impact of fire products and crowd density on the evacuation speed of personnel, an evacuation path planning model based on improved ant colony algorithm is constructed. A evacuation network data model composed of an obstacle vertex grid is established, the inspiration function of the ant colony algorithm and the deadlock processing strategy are improved, the explosion operator in the fireworks algorithm is introduced to optimize the ant path, and a comprehensive building is used as an example for simulation experiments. The results show that the model can not only avoid evacuation paths through the dangerous area, but also adjust the evacuation path according to the construction environment and personnel distribution, which improves the safety of personnel evacuation path.

Key words: building fire, path optimization, ant colony algorithm, evacuation, fireworks algorithms
