The literature review discusses state-of-the-art studies regarding strategies for smoke control
in high-rise buildings and provides a comparison of prescriptive rules used in several …

In order to accomplish the task of real-time monitoring and prediction of fire temperature in
commercial buildings, this study proposes a sensor arrangement method based on sensor …

The double-island subway station with complex structure and dense crowds brings about
serious fire safety issues. Aiming to control fire-induced smoke, numerical simulations were …

This paper presents the effect of a personalized air curtain on respiratory protection.
Influencing factors (opening angle, tilt angle, velocity, and width) and the impact from real …

Although obstacles exist in every subway station, the impact of obstacles on smoke diffusion
characteristics is always overlooked. This work investigates the effect of rectangular …

As tunnel fires can easily cause numerous casualties, this paper proposes a combination of
ceiling centralized smoke exhaust and air curtain ventilation to study the temperature …

The operating parameters of commercially available air curtains, due to their promise in the
confinement of fire-generated heat and smoke, have been systematically examined …

The smoke layer height under fire scenario is a vital parameter for emergency evacuation.
Aiming at the effects of fire locations and heat release rate in a subway platform, series of …

The present study numerically analyzes, from an evacuation perspective, the heat and
smoke propagation in case of a fire incident in typical informal shopping malls with air …

This paper investigates the upper layer temperature evolution of a compartment fire and its
transition behavior with air curtain jet conditions. Based on FDS simulation, a series of full …
