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 …

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 …

The use of interurban and urban trains has become the preferred choice for millions of daily
commuters around the world. Despite the huge public investment for train technology and …

A full-size metro train carriage (internal dimensions 19.1 m× 3.0 m× 2.65 m) is burned to
investigate the fire growth process during the initial-3-minute. The heat release rate (HRR) …

In this paper, downstream temperature distribution and smoke movement were investigated
in a slopping tunnel with one ended-portal, experimentally and numerically. A series of …

A series of experiments were carried out in a small-scale model tunnel with dimensions of
13 m (Length)∗ 0.32 m (Width)∗ 0.48 m (Height) to investigate the fire-induced temperature …

Extensive studies have been conducted on critical velocity in ordinary single tunnels while
still lacking the direct guidance for smoke confinement in connected metro tunnels, which is …

As one of the effective way of smoke exhausting method, the lateral mechanical exhaust
system is gradually being adopted in more and more scenarios. While compared to the …

Hydrogen leakage of vehicles in the tunnel is a great threat to the safety operation of the
tunnel and longitudinal ventilation strategies have always been utilized to control the fire …

Toxic fire smoke in a tunnel fire is an important factor causing casualties. The critical
