Abstract
We present simulation of fire evacuation by real-coded Cellular Automata (RCA), which is a new approach for pedestrian dynamics. Here, we consider the evacuation from a relatively large room with one or two exits. To describe the flame spread in fire, a percolation model is applied, where the flame position is determined stochastically. In the simulation, we focus on several parameters including the number of people in room, the distance from the flame, and the location and size of the exit.
