Human exit choice in crowded built environments: Investigating underlying behavioural differences between normal egress and emergency evacuations

Egress behaviour of pedestrians in crowded complex confined spaces is investigated in this study. Despite recent methodological progress in the development of simulation tools for predicting crowd egress and evacuation, little is known based on empirical data about the underlying rules that govern e...
