Abstract
Crowd dynamics play an important role in evacuation management systems relevant to organizing safer large scale gatherings. Planning crowd control tasks via evacuation simulation of the movement and behaviours of crowd during egress could mitigate the possibility of crowd disasters that may happen. Previous studies on evacuation model do not describe the uncertainly faced by the agents in making decisions when conflicts among agents occur. Besides, most of the studies have proposed evacuation models over a discrete space and have assumed that the agents cost function that describe how the agents view the importance of evacuation scenario to be constant. This thesis proposes models pertaining to crowd motion subject to exit congestion under uncertainty and certainty conditions in a continuous space via computer simulations.
