The behaviour of pre-code reinforced concrete (RC) columns in sequence of fire and earthquake is not well understood and can be critical in case of buildings which experienced fire and are either ...

Studying the scale and intensity of previous fires can help us to detect thermal hotspots earlier and support faster, smarter ...

Global warming is here. As anticipated for more than 50 years now, the temperature and levels of atmospheric CO2 have increased. Modelling forest fires and forecasting fire behaviour is a complex ...

This paper explores a new way of designing water supply networks for fire safety using ideas from graph theory, focusing on a method called certified domination. Ensuring a good water supply is ...

California’s fires are getting bigger and harder to predict. The only way to tame them may be to remake the landscape itself. At the height of California’s worst wildfire season on record, Geoff ...
