Fire Simulation

• Conducted with NIST's Fire Dynamics Simulator. Available here: https://pages.nist.gov/fds-smv/
• Simple Room with a simplified fire i.e. a constant HRR of 60 kW
• Write-out of extinction and temperature at a height of z = 2.0 m (.sf)
• Simulation time 120 s
• Output data is part of the repository

Evacuation Simulation

• Conducted with JuPedSim. Available here: http://www.jupedsim.org
• Room occupied with 100 agents
• Instantaneous movement towards the exit
• Write-out of pedestrian's trajectories (.xml)
• 10 computational realisations (random seed ranges from 1254 to 1263)
• Simulation time 200 s
• Output data is part of the repository

Requirements for the Analysis

• Python 3.8
• Python modules: glob, xml.etree.ElementTree, numpy, scipy, matplotlib+pyplot, pylab

ASET map generation

• preprocessing for conversion of FDS slices to ascii format
• generation of ASET map from ascii slicefiles (.txt)
• execute python 0_ASET/aset_map.py

RSET map generation (incorporating 10 computational realisations)

• generation of RSET map from trajectories (.xml)
• execute python 1_RSET/rset_map.py

Difference map generation and consequence quantification

• execute python 2_DIFF/diff_map.py
