Phase Transitions in a Forest-Fire Model
We investigate a forest-fire model with the density of empty sites as control parameter. The model exhibits three phases, separated by one first-order phase transition and one 'mixed' phase transition which shows critical behavior on only one side and ...

MONTHLY FIRE BEHAVIOR PATTERNS [PDF]
Abstract : From tabulated frequency distributions of fire danger indexes for a nationwide network of 89 stations, the probabilities of four types of fire behavior ranging from 'fire out' to 'critical' were calculated for each month and are shown in map form.

Using computer vision to classify, locate and segment fire behavior in UAS-captured images
The widely adaptable capabilities of artificial intelligence, in particular deep learning and computer vision have led to significant research output regarding flame and smoke detection. The composition of flame and smoke, also described as fire behavior,

Improvement of fire danger rating and vegetation fire behaviour prediction on protected areas
Protected areas (PAs) are established to conserve biological diversity, to maintain nature complexes and objects in their natural condition. Strict nature reserves prevail in Russia by their total area.

EFFECTIVENESS OF WATER-RETAINING POLYMER AS FIRE RETARDANT IN INDIRECT USE [PDF]
The use of fire retardants increases efficiency in fighting forest fires, however, it still presents uncertainties regarding environmental contamination, recommendations for preparation, and it lack of regulation in Brazil.

Smoldering behavior of peat fire
Abstract This research is conducted to study the effect of airflow rate on the smoldering combustion dynamics and transition to flaming. The test is done using three types of peat extracted from South Sumatera, Central Kalimantan, and Papua Provinces, Indonesia.
