Experimental investigation on the smoke back-layering length in a branched tunnel fire considering different longitudinal ventilations and fire locations

open access: yesCase Studies in Thermal Engineering, 2021
Most previous works concentrated on the smoke back-layering length in traditional single tunnel fires, whereas very few studies have been performed related to the smoke back-layering length(L) in a branched tunnel fire.

Development of Passive Fire Protection Mortars

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
During a fire event, the stability of steel structures may be compromised, and structural collapse may occur due to the loss of their mechanical resistance as the temperature increases. One of the solutions to reduce this problem is the protection with a

Experimental study of compartment fire development and ejected flame thermal behavior for a large-scale light timber frame construction

open access: yesCase Studies in Thermal Engineering, 2021
Most of the previous work focused on fire behavior of non-combustible construction. However, few investigations have systematically addressed fire development and window ejected flame based on large-scale light timber frame construction (LTFC).
