Analysis of Clogging in Evacuation Using a Multi-grid Model
نویسنده
چکیده
Some collective behavior during escape panic such as the ‘faster-is-slower effect’ and the irregular outflow are associated with clogging. The reasons for clogging appearance are investigated with a multi-grid model which is presented in previous work. The model implements finer discretization which leads to clogging effects in the dynamics. The effects of the exit width and the interactions caused by overlapping grid on clogging are analyzed by a simulation that pedestrians evacuate from a room with one door. The influences of different maximum numbers of overlapping grid are also investigated.

The main objective of this paper is to model and optimize the parallel and relatively complex FuzzyP+FuzzyI+FuzzyD (FP+FI+FD) controller for simultaneous control of the voltage and frequency of a micro-grid in the islanded mode. The FP+FI+FD controller has three parallel branches, each of which has a specific task. Finally, as its name suggests, the final output of the controller is derived fro...
