The paper explores the usage of agent-based modeling in the context of large event halls evacuation during music festivals and cultural events. An agent-based model is created in NetLogo 6.2.2 for better representing the human behavior when involved in such situations. A series of characteristics have been set for the agents in order to preserve their heterogeneity in terms of speed, age, locomotion impairment, familiarity with the environment, evacuating with another person, choosing the closest exit or not, selecting the closest path to the exits. An "adapted cone exit" approach has been proposed in the paper in order to facilitate the guidance of the agents in the agent-based model to the closest exit and its advantages have been proved in comparison with the classical "cone exit" approach. Different evacuation scenarios have been simulated and analyzed for better observing the capabilities of evacuation modeling in the case of evacuation emergencies. Besides the overall evacuation time, an average evacuation time has been determined for the agents based on the individual evacuation time, which can be easily connected with a risk indicator associated to each situation. Due to the visual interface offered by the agent-based model, coupled with the evacuation indicators, the proposed model can allow the identification of the main factors that may contribute to a prolonged evacuation process (e.g. overcrowding at one of the exits, not choosing the appropriate door, evacuating with a friend/parent) and the potential measures to be considered for insuring a safe evacuation process.

Bencana merupakan kejadian yang dapat mengancam hidup manusia dan menyebabkan kerugian. Bencana dapat terjadi kapan saja dan dimana saja, termasuk di kampus. Kampus merupakan tempat mahasiswa melakukan aktifitas akademik dan non-akademik. Meskipun pihak kampus sudah menyediakan informasi terkait persiapan jika terjadi bencana, namun mahasiswa terkadang tidak mengetahui informasi tersebut. Tujuan makalah ini adalah untuk mengembangkan game simulasi kebencanaan. Metode yang digunakan dalam mengembangkan game simulasi adalah model ADDIE (analysis, design, develop, implement, evaluate). Game dikembangkan dengan menggunakan Unity game engine. Evaluasi dilakukan dengan uji black-box. Hasil uji menunjukan seluruh fungsionalitas utama game sudah berfungsi dengan baik.

During an earthquake, interior nonstructural components of a building will be damaged. The damaged objects will obstruct pedestrians' evacuation routes and increase casualties. But this issue has received scant attention in evacuation simulation research. This paper focuses on this issue and proposes an indoor seismic evacuation model to simulate crowd evacuation in a dynamic environment.A physical model of nonstructural components is presented to simulate the dynamics of the indoor scenario. The flow field algorithm is constructed to guide pedestrian's avoidance behaviors globally to reflect the impact of environmental changes on indoor crowd path selection, and a modified social force model is built to simulate the joint influence of seismic forces and the environment on pedestrian motion states. The results of the experiments shows that the proposed model can generate realistic evacuation scene and rational evacuation routes in the earthquake.
