1. 1. EVALUATION OF MULTI-ZONE MODELLING FOR FIRE RISK ASSESSMENT IN TUNNELS

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

   Author : Annachiara Nardone; [2023]
   Keywords : tunnels; tunnel fires; multi-zone modelling; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Abstract Tunnels are one of the most complex and delicate elements of the road system. Assessing fire behaviour and fire severity remains the biggest source of uncertainty in risk assessment and is an essential step in the tunnel design process. READ MORE

3. 2. Multi-scale modelling of fire in accelerator tunnels: a CERN case study

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

   Author : Melchior Schepers; [2018]
   Keywords : Multi-scale modelling; CFD; tunnel fires; FDS; CERN; particle accelerator; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Multi-scale modellering is een nieuwe benadering in het modelleren van rook en brand in systemen waarbij de grootte van het domein een meer conventionele volledige 3D modellering onmogelijk maakt. Het domein wordt opgesplitst in een 1D en 3D gedeelte om zo de simulatietijd te verminderen. READ MORE

4. 3. The impact of fire development on design resistance of structures

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Byggkonstruktion och brand

   Author : Catrin Eberius; Kristin Fjällström; [2017]
   Keywords : Large compartments; temperature- time curves; travelling fires; simplified fire models; fire development;

   Abstract : The current design methods used to determine fire progression and temperature-time development in fire compartments today are being questioned to not give accurate results in large and complex enclosures (larger than 500 m2). The established design methods proposed by Eurocode and used by fire safety engineers today are primarily the standard temperature-time curve and the parametric temperature-time curves. READ MORE

5. 4. Ventilation strategies for road tunnels in different countries and consequences using Fixed Fire Fighting System (FFFS)

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

   Author : Rohan John Baptiste; [2017]
   Keywords : Longitudinal ventilation; fixed fire fighting system FFFS ; fractional effective dose FED ; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : A study is carried out on the ventilation strategies for road tunnels in different countries and consequences using fixed fire fighting systems (FFFS). The type of ventilation strategy for road tunnels can ensure the safety of people during the evacuation stages and protection of the rescue services during their intervention of the fire. READ MORE

6. 5. Visualization of Measurement Data from Tunnel Fires

   University essay from Institutionen för teknik och naturvetenskap; Tekniska högskolan

   Author : Anna-Karin Carlsson; Charlotta Wadman; [2007]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : The work for this thesis has been carried out at SP Technical Research Institute of Sweden, in Borås, for the account of the European organisation L-surF, Large Scale Underground Research Facility on Safety and Security, where SP is responsible of the visualization research. The goal with this thesis work is to evaluate different visualization techniques for real-time visualization of measurement data from fire experiments in tunnels. READ MORE
