Development and Validation of Computer Simulations for Aircraft Emergency Evacuation

The objective of the project will be to continue development of a computer simulation program for aircraft emergency evacuation. The next phase will be to deliver a sophisticated and practical computer simulation program that can be used directly by the aircraft manufacturers to build aircraft with the highest safety standard for emergency evacuation, and by the federal agencies to examine and review the aircraft evacuation efficiency and provide guidance to aircraft manufacturers for better and more efficient aircraft.
