Study on Evacuation Facilities Bottleneck in Xizhimen Station with Simulation

Article Preview

Abstract:

Urban Rail Transit (URT) is more and more popular with citizens. Evacuation capability of stations is concerned with their service levels. When emergencies occur, passengers' safety is threatened. 3-line Xizhimen Station is taken with M/G/c/c theory for an example. By analyzing evacuation capability of stairs and passageways, evacuation bottlenecks are found to improve the service level of Xizhimen subway station.
