Design of Barrier-free Evacuation for Diverse Crowd on Campus Based on Evacuation Simulation: A Case Study of North China University of Technology

By using evacuation simulation technology and taking North China University of Technology as an example,the barrier-free evacuation design scheme for groups with different needs in campus environment was deeply discussed.Based on the data of building layout,population composition,road system and distribution of shelters in the school,a detailed evacuation model was constructed in the Pathfinder emergency evacuation simulation system.By the simulation during the daytime and at night,the total evacuation time of the whole school,evacuation completion time of each building,selection of evacuation paths and shelter utilization were analyzed in detail.The simulation results show that the distribution of shelters on campus is uneven,and their capacity is limited.As a result,the evacuation paths of the disabled,the elderly and children need to be adjusted frequently,which affects the overall evacuation efficiency.In view of this,the optimization strategies of road renovation and entrances of shelters and buildings were put forward from the perspective of space planning.From the perspective of emergency management,it is suggested to improve the campus evacuation infrastructure and strengthen the evacuation drill for teachers and students.These results provide a solid theoretical support for enhancing the construction of campus barrier-free environment and improving the level of emergency management.

Simulation of Seabed Erosion Produced by an Inclined Jet

Water jets are widely used in seabed scouring and desilting applications.In the present work,dedicated tests have been conducted using a jet scour model test platform and sand beds containing grains with different sizes.The FLOW-3D simulation software has also been used to tackle the problem form a numerical point of view.The boundary conditions of the simulation have been optimized to reduce the gap between the numerical results and the outcomes of the experimental tests.Scour area calculation has been based on a RNG k-εTurbulence model.Moreover,the FAVOR(Fractional Area Volume Obstacle Representation)technology has been selected for grid division to make the simulation results more accurate.Jet scours with inclination angles of 10–20°have been simulated.It has been found that jet scouring is greatly affected by the environmental water flow,that is,water flow can weaken the scouring capacity of the jets.

Effectiveness of Epidemic Control in Shopping Centers Based on Anylogic Platform: A Case Study of Handan Weilaishi Shopping Center

From the perspective of COVID-19’s prevention and control, to test effectiveness of existing control measures for shopping center buildings, taking Weilaishi Shopping Center of Handan City as an example, Anylogic software is used for analogue simulation of the whole shopping process. According to existing control means of Weilaishi Shopping Center, the model sets three different simulation conditions: “no control state”, “restricting entrance and exit opening” and “increasing epidemic prevention distance”. The epidemic prevention effects of different control methods are intuitively displayed through the simulated output thermal diagram and the statistical diagram of the number of infected people. The results show that restricting the opening of entrances and exits can reduce the number of infected people by 36%, and increasing the epidemic prevention distance can reduce the number of infected people by 89.8%. Both control methods can play a certain epidemic prevention effect.

Research on Thermal Management Control Strategy of Electric Vehicle Liquid Cooling Battery Pack

Due to the risk of thermal runaway in the charging and discharging process of a soft packed lithium battery pack for electric vehicles,a stamping channel liquid cooling plate cooling system is designed,and then the heat dissipation problem of the battery pack is solved through reasonable thermal management control strategy.Using computational fluid dynamics simulation software star-CCM+,the thermal management control strategy is optimized through simulation technology,and the temperature field distribution of battery pack is obtained.Finally,an experimental platform is built,combined with experiments,the effectiveness of the thermal management control strategy of the cooling system is verified.The results show that when the battery pack is in the environment of 25℃,the maximum temperature of the cooling system can be lower than 40℃,the maximum temperature difference between all single batteries is within 5℃,and the maximum temperature difference between inlet and outlet coolant is 3℃,which can meet the heat dissipation requirements of the battery pack and prevent out of control heat generation.
