The paper deals with the use of modelling and simulation tools for preparation and implementation of exercises of Integrated Rescue System components and crisis management bodies with the main emphasis on the use of means of constructive simulation using SIMEX simulator. A scenario of multiple traffic accident was prepared for the crisis management authorities. Activities performed by crisis management...
Virtual accident scenes in specific environments are simulated via the virtual reality technology. In the light of emergency rescue principles, trainees are allowed to mobilize and deploy emergency rescue forces, and work out combat schemes to control the development and expansion of accidents. In addition, based on the tactical knowledge repository, the system carries out logical reasoning for combat...
Any large scale construction related activity generally requires the use of cranes. A crane operator must be appropriately skilled to avoid any mishap at the construction site. This can be accomplished by training crane operators on all the safety procedures and methods of crane operation to be practiced. In this paper we explore a method whereby anyone who is being trained as a crane operator, must...
Understanding how humans make decisions in challenging situations — such as trying to save peoples' lives even though this endangers one's own life — is crucial in optimizing rescue operations and dealing with natural disasters and other crises. The experimental study of these decisions, however, has often been done using text-based surveys, which is known to emphasize rational and reflective judgments...
Construction industry is reportedly the third highest accident occurrence after manufacturing and agriculture. Research have shown that hazard is the major factor that contributes to accident on construction sites. Thus, training on hazard identification is important to construction workers as they need to understand how to identify and act wisely in handling hazards. Construction Industry Development...
Construction industry is a very complicated and complex environment that causes high accident rate. The development of advanced virtual world has become an important issue for safety education in order to reduce dangerous occurrence in the construction site. However, most researchers on virtual world still have limitations such as the offline virtual world simulation, the low level of interaction...
In this paper, a firefighting tactical training simulation environment which provides high-immersion and interactive 3D virtual disaster scenes as the core was developed. Specific technical requirements on the platform architecture, hardware implementation, software functionality, application mode, and platform-based training mode, types of trainees and training evaluation methods are also proposed...
The development of appropriate training schemes and scenarios for computer-based training in the use of new Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), has been one of the many objectives of the TRAIN-ALL (European Commission-EC co-funded) project. In order to make drivers familiar and able to use the in-vehicle driver support systems, specific simulator scenarios have been built, along with the use...
There exist generally low fidelity, function insufficiency, deficient effect etc to the existing substation training simulator. We present a novel full-functional virtual simulation training system of substation by means of three-dimension virtual simulation technology, database technology. During the course of realizing numerous training cases, DOF, multi-channel technology are adopted to reappear...
Virtual Reality technology is increasingly being used in mining data visualization, accident simulation, miner training, equipment simulation, and risk evaluation in mining industry. However, little attention has been paid on modeling risk behaviors in underground coalmine. Based on Multi-agent technology, a hierarchical architecture for modeling the risk behaviors in coalmine virtual environment...
High level architecture (HLA) is general purpose architecture for distributed computer simulation systems independent of platform. The dangerous chemicals accident rescue skill training system (DASS) based on HLA can solve the problems in reality application, such as dangerous, expensive, hard to create accident scenario and organized, and so on. Hence, we designed the DASS which supporting students'...
This paper discussed the application of virtual reality technology and its application on prevention of coal and gas outburst in coal mine. With the help of virtual reality technology, the vivid and process of coal and gas outburst in coal mine could be obtained. The application of virtual reality technology on prevention of coal and gas outburst included development such as system requirements, data...
Novice driver training has become an important issue in China with the quick increase of vehicle population. However, the training school mainly provides only operation skill training, which seems insufficient for novice driver training. To help novice drivers develop higher-order perceptual and cognitive skills safely and quickly, a prototype model of driver training platform is proposed. The system...
