Les risques idiosyncrasiques lors d’une évacuation : les femmes et les enfants d’abord ?

In Nikolai's own words...

Crowd disasters, for example during the evacuation of crowds from enclosed spaces, claim many victims every year. Previous research has largely investigated crowds as a whole. In contrast, I focus on the individual-specific risks posed by the crowd dynamics of evacuations. For example, accidents could occur as a result of differences in behaviour, physical, cognitive or social circumstances.
I address the following questions: How does crowd composition affect individual and group movement decisions in the context of evacuations? How and why do physical, mental or social circumstances, such as age or the presence of family members, increase the risk to the well-being of individuals in evacuations? What is the effect of initial conditions (e.g. position of seating) on the individual-specific risk during evacuations? What is the effect of evacuation strategies, such as evacuating women and children first, on the general and individual evacuation?
