Abstract:

Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) station is the transport node, with population concentrated, closed-space, more gates this type of space a high risk of accidents hidden. The study based multi-agent simulation (MAS) system to create wayfinding simulation in MRT station, to create an effective evacuation simulation model. It can use to this type of space as a basis for risk assessment and future planning and design of the test platform.
