description Evacuation simulation is an important method for studying and evaluating the safety of passenger evacuation, and the key lies in whether it can accurately predict personnel evacuation behavior in different environments. The existing models have good adaptability in building environments but have weaker adaptability to personnel evacuation in civil aircraft cabins with more obstacles and stronger hindrances. We target the narrow seat aisle environment on airplanes and use a BP neural network to establish a continuous displacement model for personnel evacuation. We compare the simulation accuracy of evacuation time with the social force model based on continuous displacement and further compare the similarity of personnel evacuation process behavior. The results show that both models were close to the experimental values in simulating evacuation time, while our BP neural network evacuation model based on experimental data was more accurate in predicting the personnel evacuation process, showing more realistic details such as the probability of conflicts and bottleneck evolution in the cross aisle.
