Abstract:
    The present work presents the relationship between geometric parameters of escape routes and efficiency of evacuation of people from buildings and facilities. An integrated mathematical approach for providing conditions for successful evacuation is presented. Specific effects of measurements and shapes of escape routes and escape exits on the behavior of the crowd are studied. An assessment of consequences of incorrectly applied architectural and construction measures in the construction of escape routes and escape exits is made. Adequate geometric solutions are proposed to facilitate the rapid and reliable movement of the crowd to a safe area. A concrete example of application of the approach through a calculation procedure is presented.
