EVACUATION ANALYSIS FOR OPTIMAL-LOCATING OF FLOOD DISASTER SHELTERS FOCUSING ON ULSAN METROPOLITAN CITY

Abstract

 A multi-agent evacuation simulation model based on C ++ language was constructed for Taehwa-dong, Jung-gu, Ulsan, Korea. Taehwa-dong currently does not have quantitative criteria on the location and size of shelters during inland inundation so that the evacuation time by age group was reviewed for the necessary evacuation strategies in the area. In addition, a temporal evacuation shelter was designated to improve the long evacuation time in the region. This study is useful for the preliminary planning of the road maintenance and evacuation facilities as well as the suggestion of optimal evacuation routes.
