This Guide describes how to use the Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS) version 5. Because
new features are added periodically, check the current version number on the inside front …

To reduce the casualties of underground shopping malls after a fire and provide a reference
for better emergency decision-making, this paper undertakes an in-depth study of the fire …

The role of combustion research in fire safety is revisited through the process of Scaling-Up
fire. Scaling-Up fire requires the adequate definition of all the building blocks and couplings …

Firefighters would greatly benefit from a technology based on predictive fire simulations,
able to assist their decision making process. For those simulations to be useful, they need a …

This work presents multi-objective optimization of an aspirating smoke detection system
which uses the pipeline to transport air sample from the sampling points to the analysing …

Fire disasters have a devastating impact on both lives and properties. The purpose of this
study was to explore the causes and consequences of fire disasters and find out the …

The time for smoke gas to reach a smoke detector would depend on its structural
characteristics. However, previous studies have neglected to explore this issue. In this …

Se analizó la situación actual de la investigación y la educación en incendios y explosiones
en Colombia desde un enfoque de ciencia e ingeniería y se hicieron recomendaciones …

For fire detection and alarm system with simple function, positioning difficulties, false positive
and false negative in traditional intelligent building, the fire detection and alarm systems …

Smoke inhalation is a major cause of death in fire accident. Three quarters of building fire
casualties were the result of excessive smoke inhalation, even with the presence of a control …
