Reconhecendo que o tempo total de evacuação é fundamental para a segurança de qualquer recinto desportivo, é vital assegurar a proteção de todos os adeptos em situações de catástrofes naturais, condições climáticas adversas, falhas mecânicas ou erros humanos. Para isso, é imprescindível um plano de evacuação de emergência que permita a saída rápida e segura de todos os ocupantes. O objetivo desta dissertação de mestrado é analisar e aprimorar o processo de evacuação do Dragão Caixa, o pavilhão oficial do Futebol Clube do Porto. Para isso, foi desenvolvido um modelo de simulação computacional do Dragão Arena utilizando o software PathFinder. Este modelo permitiu estudar e analisar 6 cenários diferentes de evacuação. No final, os cenários foram comparados com base nos tempos totais de evacuação da arena. A partir desta dissertação, concluiu-se que o tempo necessário para a evacuação total do Dragão Caixa, com capacidade para cerca de 1993 pessoas, é respetivamente de 420,3 e 735,8 segundos (7,01 e 12,26 minutos) para uma velocidade de deslocamento dos espectadores de 1,6 e 1,2 m/s. Por outro lado, conclui-se que o percurso de cada adepto e a distribuição dos mesmos pelas diversas saídas influencia significativamente os tempos totais de evacuação.
Recognizing that the total evacuation time is fundamental to the safety of any ship, it is vital to ensure the protection of crew and passengers in situations of natural disasters, adverse weather conditions, mechanical failures or human error. To this end, an emergency evacuation plan that allows all occupants to leave quickly and safely is essential. The aim of this master's thesis is to analyze and improve the evacuation process at Dragão Caixa, the official pavilion of Futebol Clube do Porto. To this end, a computer simulation model of the Dragão Arena was developed using PathFinder software. This model made it possible to study and analyze 6 different evacuation scenarios. In the end, the scenarios were compared based on the total evacuation times of the arena. From this dissertation, it was concluded that the time required for the total evacuation of the Dragão Caixa, with a capacity of around 1993 people, is 420.3 and 735.8 seconds respectively (7.01 and 12.26 minutes) for a spectator movement speed of 1.6 and 1.2 m/s. On the other hand, it can be concluded that the route taken by each fan and their distribution among the various exits has a considerable influence on total evacuation times.
