Linking fire behaviour and its ecological effects to plant traits, using FRaME in R

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Floral fire ecology incorporates a feedback loop in which plants influence fire behaviour and fire behaviour influences the flora. Recent advances in fire behaviour modelling have quantified many plant‐based drivers of fire behaviour, but the consequent ...

Community fire prevention via population segmentation modelling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In this paper we examine the use of population segmentation modelling for targeting fire prevention to the needs of the community. A population segmentation approach based upon socio-economic characteristics data was developed to provide a deeper ...

Systematic review of dengue vaccine efficacy

open access: yesBMC Infectious Diseases, 2019
Background Dengue is an arbovirus that has rapidly spread worldwide, and the incidence of dengue has greatly increased in recent decades. The actual numbers of dengue cases are underreported, and many cases are not classified correctly.

Forest Fire Susceptibility Zonation in Eastern India Using Statistical and Weighted Modelling Approaches

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2023
Recurring forest fires disturb ecological balance, impact socio-economic harmony, and raise global concern. This study implements multiple statistical and weighted modelling approaches to identify forest fire susceptibility zones in Eastern India.

Evaluation of graphical control flow management approaches for Event-B modelling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Integrating graphical representations with formal methods can help bridge the gap between requirements and formal modelling. In this paper, we compare and evaluate two graphical approaches aiming at describing control flows and refinement in Event-B, and

Cinema Fire Modelling by FDS

open access: yes, 2013
Recent advances in computer fluid dynamics (CFD) and rapid increase of computational power of current computers have led to the development of CFD models capable to describe fire in complex geometries incorporating a wide variety of physical phenomena ...

Evaluation of unprotected steel beam temperature during fire using CFD simulation [PDF]

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2021
Fire resistance of building construction is essential part of the design process. Thermal loading of loadbearing elements can be obtained by using simplified standard fire curve or advanced numerical fire model.

Fire safety assessment of open wide gangway underground trains in tunnels using coupled fire and evacuation simulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
A new type of train configuration, known as Open Wide Gangway (OWG) is becoming popular, particularly in underground environments. Previous fire modelling analysis demonstrated that the OWG configuration was considered safe as or safer than conventional
