Evacuation under flooded conditions: Experimental investigation of the influence of water depth on walking behaviors by Dias, Charitha

“…To propose guidelines for evacuation planning during floods and to develop simulation tools, which can be used in evacuation planning, empirical data are needed under different flooding conditions. However, there is a lack of data and studies on such aspects. This study examines the influence of water depth on human walking behaviors under hydrostatic conditions using the data collected through a controlled laboratory experiment. …”
