Safety Of Users In Road Evacuation:General Methodology And Main Results

This paper presents the main results of the SICURO project. The objectives of the project are to: (1) calibrate, validate and test models and procedures to assess the effects of action to reduce risk in terms of exposure based on general real evacuations; (2) construct a prototype laboratory system of models for public administration where models and procedures are implemented; and (3) provide public administration with guidelines for planning and managing evacuation in an urban system under emergency conditions. The authors present the project, the methodology and the main general results obtained from experimentation and a detailed description is reported in the other paper of the session.
