Human behaviors in flood emergency affect individuals’ safety levels in urban scenarios. Evacuation simulators are needed to fully perform risk assessment and risk-reduction solutions evaluations. Volunteers are engaged in laboratory experiments to propose floodwaters-evacuation motion relations. A mannequin (representing an adult) is used for determining human stability limits in floodwaters. Preliminary results are compared to previous works and relations could be added to evacuation simulators.

Volunteers are engaged in laboratory experiments to propose floodwaters-evacuation motion relations. A mannequin (representing an adult) is used for determining human stability limits in floodwaters.
