Intelligent Collaborative Networking Method For Workshop Emergencies, Kong Tao, Wang Yan Dec 2019

Intelligent Collaborative Networking Method For Workshop Emergencies, Kong Tao, Wang Yan

Journal of System Simulation

Abstract: Due to the complex environment of intelligent manufacturing workshop, abnormal emergencies will cause huge security threats and economic losses to the workshop. It is difficult to transmit the abnormal event data continuously, quickly and completely in the workshop production site, and the fluctuation of abnormal event data is great with high requirements on the integrity and real-time of data transmission. In this paper, a multi-agent cooperative networking method for workshop emergencies is proposed. Mobile robots are introduced as intermediary Sink nodes for data transmission between sensor networks and the Internet. In case of emergencies, the intelligent node and cluster …

Effects Of Exit Doors And Number Of Passengers On Airport Evacuation Effeciency Using Agent Based Simulation, Jie Chen, Dahai Liu, Sirish Namilae, Sang-A Lee, Jennifer E. Thropp, Younho Seong

International Journal of Aviation, Aeronautics, and Aerospace

Many factors determine the efficiency of evacuation at an airport during emergencies. These factors are very complicated and many times, unpredictable. The Federal Aviation Administration provides numerous advisory circulars and regulations for managing airport evacuation. However, a thorough literature review suggests that research on airport evacuation is still very limited. A study was designed to simulate an airport evacuation to address this problem. This study selected a local certificated airport in the United States for this purpose. We developed and validated a situation model using AnyLogic to investigate evacuation time at this airport. Using different variables, such as the number …
