Abstract

The goal of this paper is to create a model simulating a part of the terrorist attack in the Tokyo subway in 1995 using sarin gas and its implementation using AnyLogic software. Another goal is to find possibilities of minimizing the losses using what-if scenarios. The model should serve as a tool for further investigation of the attack and proposes the appropriate security options in the future. The final part of the work summarizes the results of the research and suggestions for improving the model.

Highlights

  • In 1995, an act unprecedented in Japan was committed in the capital of Japan (Tokyo).Five members of the terrorist group Aum Shinri Kyo released sarin gas during the rush hour in a total of five train lines

  • The results showed a relatively significant difference from the baseline model

  • The number of people with light exposure is more than four times less in case of evacuation after 10 min

Summary

Introduction

In 1995, an act unprecedented in Japan was committed in the capital of Japan (Tokyo).Five members of the terrorist group Aum Shinri Kyo released sarin gas during the rush hour in a total of five train lines. In 1995, an act unprecedented in Japan was committed in the capital of Japan (Tokyo). Late evacuations and closures had a significant impact on the high losses. This took place only after several minutes. Occur much earlier [1,2,3,4]. This act has been the subject of many publications [5,6,7,8,9], while publications [10,11,12]
