Measurement Uncertainty in Fire Tests—A Fire Laboratory Point of View
Journal of Testing and Evaluation, 2011Since the adoption of ISO/IEC 17025, testing laboratories have been required to perform Measurement Uncertainty analysis for the tests within their scope. Four points of recurring debate are discussed: (1) The variability in fire test results due to unforeseen/uncontrolled variables is generally far greater than the measurement uncertainty of the ...

Fire severity mapping is conventionally accomplished through the interpretation of aerial photography or the analysis of moderate- to coarse-spatial-resolution pre- and post-fire satellite imagery. Although these methods are well established, there is a

Arcing resistance of high fire point dielectric liquids
IEEE Transactions on Power Delivery, 1997High fire point (HFP) dielectric liquids have been in use since the demise of Askarels (PCB/TCB) in the mid-1970s. Having fire points of at least 300/spl deg/C, their main application has been in the role of power transformer impregnants particularly in units located in, on, or near buildings.

A Novel Fire Identification Algorithm Based on Improved Color Segmentation and Enhanced Feature Data
IEEE Transactions on Instrumentation and Measurement, 2021In order to improve the accuracy of fire identification based on video in the Internet-of-Things environment, this article proposes a new fire identification algorithm by merging fire segmentation and multifeature fusion of fire.

Fire testing flat roofs and wall linings with point fire sources
Fire and Materials, 1979AbstractIn the spring of 1977 seven real scale fire tests on flat roofs and wall linings were carried out with relatively small fire loads to simulate the early stages of a fire. Tests with large fire loads had already been performed. Five tests were carried out on insulated corrugated steel roof decks with a fire‐retardant EPS (expanded polystyrene ...

Point patterns of forest fire locations
Environmental and Ecological Statistics, 2008In this paper I demonstrate some of the techniques for the analysis of spatial point patterns that have become available due to recent developments in point process modelling software. These developments permit convenient exploratory data analysis, model fitting, and model assessment.

The Fire Marshal's Point of View on Fire Tests
1963During and prior to the early 1900's, the construction of a fire-resistive assembly or building was an art. Development of the testing procedures in ASTM Methods E 119 and the resultant fire-resistive rated assemblies and building units have replaced the “art” that once governed. Variations in physical test facilities and the broad provisions contained
