Flammability behaviour of wood and a review of the methods for its reduction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Wood is one of the most sustainable, aesthetically pleasing and environmentally benign materials. Not only is wood often an integral part of structures, it is also the main source of furnishings found in homes, schools, and offices around the world.

Improving the Measurement of the Top Quark Mass [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
Two possible ways to improve the mass resolution for observing hadronic top quark decay $t \to bW \to 3 jets$ are studied: (1) using fixed cones in the rest frames of the $t$ and $W$ to define the decay jets, instead of the traditional cones in the rest ...

Numerical Fire Spread Simulation Based on Material Pyrolysis—An Application to the CHRISTIFIRE Phase 1 Horizontal Cable Tray Tests

open access: yesFire, 2020
A general procedure is described to generate material parameter sets to simulate fire propagation in horizontal cable tray installations. Cone Calorimeter test data are processed in an inverse modelling approach.
