Enhancing Built Environment Design through Human Behavior Simulation

This research explores the integration of human behavior simulation in architecture, building, and planning. By simulating various scenarios such as crowd dynamics, wayfinding, and hazard response, the study investigates how these simulations can improve design efficiency and user experience. Using virtual environments, avatars, and AI-driven behaviors, the project aims to analyze how factors like perception and social interactions influence circulation patterns in the built environment. Findings from simulations such as evacuation scenarios provide insights on improving spatial organization and decision-making in design.
