In the past two decades, the interest in fire safety science of tunnels has significantly
increased, mainly due to the rapidly increasing number of tunnels built and the catastrophic …

The number of underground tunnels used for transportation has markedly increased globally
during the past decade. This has resulted in an increased number of tunnel fire incidents …

In order to investigate the effect of strong environmental wind on a tunnel fire under natural
ventilation, a series of numerical simulations were conducted using large eddy simulation …

Numerical and theoretical work was conducted to investigate the effect of tunnel cross
section on critical velocity for smoke control in longitudinally ventilated tunnel fires. The …

Under the influences of the chimney effect and longitudinal ventilation, the risks of
continuous spill fires in inclined tunnels are catastrophic with great complexity and …

Tunnels are separated from the ground by structural linings, and are enclosed and
unfamiliar for occupants. In tunnel fires, occupants are faced with a dangerous environment …

This paper investigates experimentally the thermal buoyant smoke back-layering flow length
beneath the tunnel ceiling with combination ceiling extraction and longitudinal ventilation …

Reduced scale experiments in a branched tunnel were carried out to study the variation of
the maximum gas excess temperature beneath the ceiling and temperature profile under …

Sealing tunnel portals is an important approach to control tunnel fires. The maximum gas
temperature rise beneath the ceiling was studied under the effects of both fire location and …

A review concerning passive fire protection system and their role in road tunnel fire is
presented. A Road tunnel fire usually involves high uncertainty due to the presence of …
