Prediction of smoke filling in large volumes by means of data assimilation-based numerical simulations [PDF]

, 2012
The concept of numerical simulations for real-time Numerical Fire Forecasting is illustrated for the case of natural smoke filling of a large-scale atrium in case of fire.

Fire Modelling

, 2019
This project deliverable describes the outcome of the Subtask 3.4.3, based on thermal and thermal-structural simulations, able to replicate the fire test described in the ISO 834, and performed on the structure named as Timber Façade and Sandwich Panel. The aim of the activity is to define their fire resistance.

Preliminary results of statistical analysis focused on the dependence between forest litter moisture and relative air humidity

Journal of Forest Science, 2016
The results of the dependence of forest litter moisture on relative air humidity are presented in this paper. The dependence was studied applying the data obtained during a field survey in research plots situated in the Low Tatras Mountains territory. To

Review of Convective Heat Transfer Modelling in CFD Simulations of Fire-Driven Flows

Applied Sciences, 2021
Progress in fire safety science strongly relies on the use of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) to simulate a wide range of scenarios, involving complex geometries, multiple length/time scales and multi-physics (e.g., turbulence, combustion, heat ...

Modelling fire occurrence at regional scale. Does vegetation phenology matter? [PDF]

, 2015
Through its influence on biomass production, climate controls fuel availability affecting at the same time fuel moisture and flammability, which are the main determinants for fire ignition and propagation.

Real Fire And Fire Modeling. [PDF]

Fire Safety Science, 1989
The system fire research in Japan was started after World War II. One of the main objectives was the diagnosis of the strength remaining in buildings burnt out during the as against a future earthquake. The fire behavior in compartments and the structural behavior of building in the fully developed stage were studied by carrying out full scale fire ...
