Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

S2E01 | Pre-evacuation time distribution in fire safety engineering
Q: Does he believe that pre-evacuation time as a concept is useful in fire safety engineering design?
Absolutely, it's very valuable and essential for performance-based design that considers all possible scenarios.
S2E01 | Pre-evacuation time distribution in fire safety engineering
Q: How does our ability to model human behavior compare to our ability to model physical phenomena or technical systems?
It's difficult to accurately model everything, but we have models that can give us a good estimate of the total time to evacuate.
S2E03 | Behavioural sequence and role-rule model
Q: What is the significance of the role-rule model?
The role-rule model explains that individuals maintain their societal roles during emergencies, which can influence their decisions and actions, often affecting evacuation efficiency.
S2E03 | Behavioural sequence and role-rule model
Q: How do we gain access to human behavior theories?
Human behavior theories are derived from studies of real fire incidents and behaviors exhibited during these events, which researchers analyze to create theoretical frameworks.
