N2  - A network model has been used to study The Station Nightclub fire evacuation. Total evacuation times and occupant utilization of doors are compared to results obtained from previous work conducted at the National Institute of Standards and Technology and subsequent modeling carried out elsewhere. Depending on the selection of the door flow and exit choice algorithms the network model is able to get outcomes similar to those published by researchers using various fine grid/continuous models. New information regarding the occupant behavior during the incident has recently been published and this is used here to further investigate the capability of the network model.<p />  <p>Language: en</p>
