Exploring the Reuse of Fire Evacuation Behaviour in Virtual Environments
There is increasing use of virtual environments to provide scenario-based training in hazardous environments, where real-world training would be difficult, dangerous or have ethical implications. One specific example is fire evacuation training and the use of virtual fire drills. Virtual environments can be used to present simulated buildings and fire hazards where evacuation drills can be safe...
متن کاملMultiagents Systems for Virtual Environment for Training. Application to Fire-fighting
This study concerns virtual environments for training in operational conditions. The principal developed idea is that these environments are heterogeneous and open multiagent systems. The MASCARET model is proposed to organize the interactions between agents and to give them reactive, cognitive and social abilities to simulate the physical and social environment. The physical environment repres...

متن کاملA virtual reality based fire training simulator with smoke hazard assessment capacity
Smoke is a leading cause of death in fire. To minimize the potential harm from the smoke hazards in the course of a fire, a rational virtual reality (VR)-based fire training simulator taking full account of the various aspects of smoke hazards has been developed and is described herein. In this simulator, a visualization technique based on volume rendering and fire dynamics data has been especi...
