Stratification of fire smoke and testing aerosol in a road tunnel: computer simulation [PDF]
The damage of the road tunnel during tunnel ventilation tests is prevented by using specific testing aerosol representing fire smoke. This study compares optical density profiles of aerosol and fire smoke using the well-known FDS simulation system ...

The behaviour of steel and composite beam-to-column connections in fire. [PDF]
Recent fire tests on the Cardington full-scale test frame and observations from real fires have demonstrated the significance of connections in fire, when they can have beneficial effects on the survival time of the structure. The

Epilepsy‐Associated Variants of a Single SCN1A Codon Exhibit Divergent Functional Properties
ABSTRACT Objective Pathogenic variants in SCN1A, which encodes the voltage‐gated sodium channel NaV1.1, are associated with multiple epilepsy syndromes exhibiting a range of clinical severity. SCN1A variants are reported in different syndromes, including Dravet syndrome, which is associated with loss‐of‐function, whereas neonatal/infantile‐onset ...

Fire Tests of Load-Bearing, Light-Steel-Framed Wall Systems Insulated with Polyurethane Foam
This paper presents the details of three fire tests conducted on light-steel-framed (LSF), load-bearing wall systems, which consist of polyurethane insulation injected into the cavities of the steel frame between two or three layers of gypsum fibreboard.

Fire resistance testing of fire doors
Fire-resistant doors are widely used as part of passive fire protection systems, preventing the spread of fire and smoke beyond the fire compartment. Fire resistance is usually determined through standard fire tests in accredited laboratories, such as the Laboratory for thermal technique and fire protection in Institute IMS, Serbia. Current regulations

Fire Spread between Industrial Premises
The study focuses on investigating models for calculating the risks of fire spread from an industrial building to adjacent buildings. The basic parameters necessary to determine the risk of fire spread are the flame height and the incident heat flux ...
