Simulation of an evacuation system in an urban community with residents and vehicles

Disasters can happen at any time, they can be cause damage to infrastructure, and also be deadly which can break apart families and cause disruption to the daily lives of everyone. Having a well-developed evacuation strategy that minimizes the evacuation time essentially means helping to reduce t...
