1. 16. Integrating Fire Evacuation into the Building Information Modelling Workflow

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

   Author : Nazim Yakhou; [2022]
   Keywords : Fire Safety Engineering; Building Information Modelling; Fire Evacuation; Performance Based Design; Golden Thread of Information; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Building Information Modelling (BIM) is arising gradually as a useful methodology in the AEC field. One of the many benefits of BIM is coordination between stakeholders from multiple disciplines. However, the field of Fire Safety Engineering (FSE) is relatively lagging by its lack of integration into this digital workflow. READ MORE

3. 17. The Application of a Wildfire Evacuation Tool to Swedish locations

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

   Author : Johannes Jovlunden; [2022]
   Keywords : Wildfire evacuations; evacuation simulation; wildfire simulation; WUI-NITY; FARSITE; Prometheus; Swedish wildfire evacuations; geo-spatial data; computer modelling; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : WUI-NITY is a computer modelling program for wildfire evacuation simulations. This thesis examines the applicability of WUI-NITY to locations in Sweden. The program was tested at example locations representing the Swedish landscape. READ MORE

4. 18. The Development of A Simple Engineering Calculation Method for Wildfire Scenarios

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

   Author : Muthia Khairunisa Jaelani; [2022]
   Keywords : Wildfire; evacuation; WUI fire; evacuation modelling; traffic modelling; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Emergency planning is required to respond to the increasing wildfire threat. A part of this is to assess a community’s capacity to move to a safe place during wildfires. This can be achieved by calculating the time it takes for a community to evacuate from an at-risk area to a relatively safe place. READ MORE

5. 19. Consequences of using Quantitative Risk Assessment as a verification tool

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

   Author : Joey Öström; [2022]
   Keywords : Quantitative Risk Assessment; QRA; performance-based design; verification tool; performance solution; performance requirements; fire risk assessment; residential building; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : What are the consequences of using Quantitative risk assessment (QRA) as a verification tool? Performance-based building codes differ from prescriptive-based codes in that they define specific objectives to be met, enabling the building designer to choose which solution to use so long it meets the objectives. This master’s thesis explores the consequences of using QRA as a verification tool in comparison to existing verification methods currently in use in Australia. READ MORE

6. 20. Fire Risk and Hazard Analysis of Lithium-Ion Battery Technologies in Underground Facilities: A Literature Review

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

   Author : Sean Meehan; [2022]
   Keywords : lithium-ion battery; hazards; risks; thermal runaway; detection; fire protection; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : The past decades have seen an exponential growth of the lithium-ion battery (LIB) market as use of this high-energy storage has found applications in nearly every industry. The European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) is interested in implementing this technology within their underground network and this literature review is intended to assist with addressing fire and safety concerns.
