Virtual reality simulation of pedestrian evacuation in earthquake scenarios: Informing urban design for enhanced evacuation (2025)
Book Chapter

Urban risk analysis traditionally relies on 2D maps and models, which, while effective for static risk mapping, lack the ability to realistically simulate dynamic emergency scenarios. The investigation presented in this chapter explores the integrati...

Virtual reality approach to enhancing hazard perception in construction using eye-tracking and deep learning (2025)
Book Chapter

Over 50% of onsite hazards remain unrecognized, primarily due to poor hazard perception and attention deficits. Eye-tracking can help in understanding human visual attention and cognitive response, but its application in construction has been restric...
