Konaklama İşletmelerinde Acil Durum Tahliye Süresini Minimize Eden Bir Model Önerisi

Abstract

Konaklama işletmelerinde, engelli kişilerden atletik yapılı kişilere kadar birçok farklı hareket kabiliyetine ve algısal farklılıklara sahip müşterilere hizmet verilmesi nedeni ile acil durumlarda tahliye sürelerini ön görmek zordur. Olası yangın, deprem gibi acil durumlarda, bina tahliyesinin en kısa sürede gerçekleştirilmesi, misafirler açısından zararı önleyici bir faaliyet olarak önem arz etmektedir. Misafirlerin, konakladıkları odalardan güvenli toplanma alanlarına tahliye edilme süresinin minimum olması, can ve mal kayıplarının azaltılmasına yardımcı olacaktır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, olası acil durumlarda misafir ve bina özelliklerini dikkate alarak, binaların tahliye süresini minimize edecek şekilde oda – müşteri ataması yapan bir matematiksel model önerisinde bulunmaktır. Çalışmada, önerilen modelin sonuçları, rast gele oda – müşteri ataması sonuçları ile karşılaştırılmış, önerilen modelin her senaryoda daha iyi sonuçlar verdiği görülmüştür.

A Model Suggestion for Minimizing the Emergency Evacuation Time in Accommodation Establishments

Abstract

It is difficult to predict evacuation times in accommodation establishments in emergency situations due to the customers served who have different mobility, from persons with disabilities to athletic people, and perceptual differences. In cases such as fire and earthquake, evacuating the building as soon as possible is important as a preventive action for customers. The minimum time to evacuate the guests from the rooms to emergency assembly points, ensures decrease the losses of life and property. The purpose of this study is to propose a mathematical model that minimizes the emergency evacuation time, assigns customers to the rooms by considering the characteristics of them and the building, in the potential emergency situations. Results of the proposed model for different scenarios are compared with the results of randomized customer-room assignments, the proposed model yields better results in each scenario.
