A Suite of smoke tools for forecasting and managing air quality impacts from fires

open access: yesBiodiversidade Brasileira, 2019
Dealing with smoke is a growing issue as larger and more frequent wildfires and increasing populations amplify the various concerns generated by smoke exposure--from firefighter and transportation safety to economic losses to health effects.

Contributions of Microgravity Test Results to the Design of Spacecraft Fire Safety Systems [PDF]

open access: yes
Experiments conducted in spacecraft and drop towers show that thin-sheet materials have reduced flammability ranges and flame-spread rates under quiescent low-gravity environments (microgravity) as compared to normal gravity.

A new negative air ion smoke suppression purifier for purifying fire smoke in road tunnel based on corona discharge

open access: yesResults in Engineering
The enclosed environment of a road tunnel restricts the dispersion of fire smoke, leading to its rapid accumulation, which significantly hampers firefighting efforts and personnel evacuation.

Advances in Safe, Flexible, and Stretchable Batteries for Wearable Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Unlike previous reviews centered on component‐based deformability, this work highlights safety‐driven design strategies for flexible and stretchable batteries. By integrating material‐level engineering, geometry‐controlled structures, biocompatibility, and self‐protection mechanisms, it establishes a unified framework that connects mechanical ...

Studying flame-retardancy, smoke and toxicity of fiber-reinforced composites manufactured via modified resins and metallic coatings

open access: yesHybrid Advances
This study focuses on the development of flame-retardant fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites, which are typically fire-intolerant despite their excellent mechanical, chemical, and thermal properties.
