Burning firebrands generated by wildland or prescribed fires may lead to the initiation of spot
fires and fire escapes. At the present time, there are no methods that provide information on …

Detection and analysis of the objects in a frame or a sequence of frames (video) can be
used to solve a number of problems in various fields, including the field of fire behaviour and …

In recent times, there have been significant developments in remote sensing techniques
applied to forest fire research. In particular, infrared (IR) imagery has proved effective to …

Generation of firebrands from various fuels has been well-studied in the past decade.
Limited details have been released about the methodology for characterizing firebrands …

This paper represents a study on the characterization of firebrand production which was
carried out, using experimental fires conducted as prescribed fires in the New Jersey Pine …

This paper describes a fire monitoring system, based on a thermographic camera, for
electrical appliances in interior spaces. These appliances are at particular risk because they …

Airborne thermal infrared (TIR) imaging systems are being increasingly used for wild fire
tactical monitoring since they show important advantages over spaceborne platforms and …

Firebrand showers are known for their devastating effects throughout Wildland-Urban
Interface (WUI) communities threatened by wildfires. In this work, we propose a framework to …

This work proposes a new thermal image processing method for computing the rate of
spread (ROS) of forest fires. It is based on an application for linear flame fronts that are …

Automatic fire detection is an interesting challenge for several researches particularly in
video surveillance application. Nowadays, it is required to exactly locate and recognize fire …
