Abstract

Highlights: For radiation environment, the environment model is proposed. For the least dose walking path problem, a path-planning method is designed. The path-planning virtual–real mixed simulation program is developed. The program can plan walking path and simulate. Abstract: A minimum dose method based on staff walking road network model was proposed for the walking-path planning in nuclear facilities. A virtual–reality simulation program was developed using C# programming language and Direct X engine. The simulation program was used in simulations dealing with virtual nuclear facilities. Simulation results indicated that the walking-path planning method was effective in providing safety for people walking in nuclear facilities.
