Preliminary design is core content of establishing emergency evacuation plan. A Link-Node space network structure model is founded for simulating public places in this paper. Based on the model, the basic model of crowd evacuation plan is analyzed and validated with an example. Then, a method of logical shortest path calculation is put forward, and satisfied preferably request of emergency evacuation plan design.

The Mathematical Model

This paper concentrates on modeling the vehicle routing to develop an evacuation plan for transit-dependent residents during emergency situation. Planning of transit route in the evacuation is formulated as a vehicle routing problem with time windows (VRPTW). An intelligent algorithm, in which genetic algorithm is embedded with simulated annealing is developed to solve the optimization model. A real evacuation network on which 19 pick-up points and 4 shelters are distributed is used to study the proposed evacuation strategy. The relevant results show the feasibility of the mathematical model as well as the efficiency of the solving algorithm.

Safety Evacuation

As a modern large Railway station,Beijing South Railway station is an important city infrastructure in Beijing, it is a large public service establishments with a large number of passengers distribution activities. It’s meaningful to do some research on how to develop some emergency passenger safety evacuation plan scientifically, which can improve its security emergency ability. Based on the analysis of present situation home and abroad, this paper made deep analysis and researches on characteristics of elevated layer and emergency within it and the methods of large passenger safely evacuate simulation. Based on the situation of elevated layer of Beijing South Railway station, this paper chose AnyLogic software to establish the elevated layer of Beijing South Railway station emergency evacuation model and analysis the evacuation success rate. Provide optimization suggestions for the emergency safety management of Beijing South Railway station.

Abstract The COVID-19 pandemic broke out in Wuhan, China, and declared an international public health emergency by the World Health Organization in 2019. It mainly manifests as symptoms of respiratory infections, and severe cases can cause pneumonia and death. The Diamond Princess cruise ship outbroke cluster infection outside China during the early pandemic. The incident occurred on February 1, 2020, and an 80-year-old Hong Kong man was diagnosed with COVID-19. The cruise docked in Yokohama, Japan, for 14 days on-board quarantine; however, cluster infection outbroke rapidly. The results show that after 14 days of quarantine, 634 (17.1%) cases were diagnosed with a total of 3,711 population, and 328 (51.7%) cases were asymptomatic. As of April 24, 2020, 712 cases have been diagnosed and 14 deaths have occurred. A cumulative mortality rate reaches 1.96%. Using a nonlinear least-squares curve fitting with Microsoft Excel Solver, we obtain the parameters of the SIR mathematical model of infectious disease and the reproduction number (R0) of the COVID-19 outbreak is 2.37±0.26. Without an emergency evacuation plan, the total infection rate will reach 88.47%. These data show “only one” COVID-19 case could still outbreak cluster infection on large cruise ships. The possible causes and countermeasures are discussed.

In Fire

The fire accident is a substantial risk in the subway due to the complexity of the underground construction confined space, which can cause a large number of human fatalities. Therefore, some effort should be made to promote the public security in subway fire accidents. Among of them, the establishment of emergency evacuation plan is very important in fire safety design and should be paid enough attention because it can provide beneficial help to life safety. The evacuation strategy including the evacuation route and evacuation safety zone are detailedly discussed in this paper, which lays the foundation for future studies of safe evacuation in the subway fire accidents.
