| Summary: | Traditional dynamic models cannot fully describe the microdetails of the impact of emotional contagion on individual state and behavior when pedestrian evacuation is simulated. This paper addresses the problem by constructing a dynamic evolution mechanism among emotion, state, and behavior. First, the direction perception domain of pedestrians during evacuation is defined. Then, the dynamic emotional perception of pedestrians during an evacuation is studied, considering the emotional increment caused by personal walking speed and others in the direction perception domain. Next, emotional contagion is introduced into the improved cellular automata (CA) simulation model in the floor field (FF), entitled the “CECA model.” The transfer probability of pedestrians in different states is proposed by defining “susceptible emotional state” and “infectious emotional state.” Finally, the simulation results are compared with known models. The results demonstrate that the improved model can improve the evacuation efficiency of the system significantly. Simultaneously, the effects of emotional threshold, infection coefficient, calm coefficient, and perception radius of the evacuation system on the pedestrian evacuation process are simulated and analyzed, providing a basis for evacuation managers to formulate evacuation strategies. |
