‘Rationality’ in Collective Escape Behaviour: Identifying Reference Points of Measurement at Micro and Macro Levels

Still images from the simulation setups 1, 2, and 3 (Images (a), (b), and (c), respectively). The three setups share the same type of geometry except for their widths of exits. In setups 1, 2, and 3, exit widths are, respectively, 150cm, 100cm, and 50cm. Therefore, they create evacuation scenarios in the same geometric layout and under three different levels of crowding.
