Abstract

The article is devoted to studying the problem of ensuring people safety and security in case of fires in nightclubs. It is proposed to use the agent-based modeling for estimating evacuation time period, which allows to take into account in the model the following factors: club visitors alcohol intoxication, as well as panic and crush accompanying evacuation process. Based on a Saint Petersburg club example, evacuation model was developed using the AnyLogic simulation modelling system. Two probable evacuation scenarios were considered to estimate time period required for the nightclub visitors evacuation. Results obtained showed that in the said nightclub high risk to human life and health was present.
