This paper states an experimental research that establishes a relationship between the body mass index (BMI) and human walking. Its mathematical formulation employs bio-mechanical anthropometry concepts. To validate the results in a realistic scenario, a novel algorithm that uses graph theory is proposed. This allows us to obtain the optimal route of escape. The model takes into account physical infrastructure, human physiology, and soil nature, then human walking speed is determined. Finally, the evacuation time as a function of BMI is presented. The proposed approach has the potential to be employed in different areas of civil security. |
