Feasibility Analysis of Cross Passage Ventilation and Smoke Control in Extra-Long Submarine Tunnel

open access: yesFire, 2022
Longitudinal ventilation fans in extra-long submarine tunnels are usually arranged at both ends of the tunnel limited by the tunnel cross section, which is usually hindered by insufficient power caused by extra-long ventilation distances.

From state-of-the-art ventilation to closed loop ventilation

open access: yes, 2022
Recent emphasis on energy load delivered during each ventilatory breath has opened a new insight to reduce harmful ventilatory induced lung injury, but no robust clinical evidence of patient benefit produced yet. Closed loop ventilation is a strategy to
