실내 화재 대응 시 유·무인 복합운용 검증을 위한 시뮬레이션 연구

초록

In indoor disaster scenarios such as fires or gas leak, prompt rescue operations are essential to minimize expected casualties. This paper proposes a simulation model that applies the concept of Manned-Unmanned Teaming (MUM-T) for effective search and rescue in indoor fires. To this end, we first identify appropriate agents to model search and rescue operations. The proposed agent-based simulation consists of a fire and map model, an occupant model, a drone model for occupants searching, a rescuer model for searching and rescuing occupants, and a control center model that assigns missions to drones and rescuers. The agent models identified according to the MUM-T concept interact with other agents during the fire response simulation. Simulation experiments were conducted for search and rescue operations in three scenarios, one consisting of only rescuers and two with mixed rescuers and drones for MUM-T. The simulation results indicated that a drone applied to MUM-T could replace an average of four rescuers. The simulation method proposed in this study is expected to improve the efficiency of search and rescue operations in indoor disaster situations and minimizing the loss of life.
