1. 6. Electric alternative of hydraulic operation : Empowering safety through electrification

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

   Author : Edvin Turesson; [2023]
   Keywords : Hydraulic; electrification;

   Abstract : Electrification is a relevant subject in the industrial market and provides many benefits. The motivation for this project is to reduce the fire hazard by removing the hydraulic fluids from the steel mill environment. This project aims to analyze the existing hydraulic sealing unit and evaluate the electrification alternatives. READ MORE

3. 7. Synergistic fire- and mechanical effect of biochar and ammonium polyphosphate in epoxy composite

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

   Author : Anton Olausson; Ludvig Jönsson; [2023]
   Keywords : Ammonium polyphosphate; Biochar; Composite; Epoxy; Synergistic effect;

   Abstract : Polymer composites are used in a varying extent and are challenging the use of traditional materials due to the push towards sustainable development. They have replaced steels and aluminum alloys in applications. READ MORE

4. 8. Samarbetet för det som är och ska bli : en studie av Etelhems eldsjälar och civila engagemang

   University essay from SLU/Dept. of Urban and Rural Development

   Author : Felicia Sandberg Vilén; [2023]
   Keywords : Etelhem; eldsjäl; tillit; strukturella hål; samarbete; civilt engagemang; Gotland;

   Abstract : Utvecklingsarbete på en ideell basis anses kunna bidra till att skapa en bra grund för att kunna bo kvar på små orter där statens och kommunens investeringar successivt minskat, och för att förbättra människors generella välmående. Den här studien handlar om civilt engagemang i Etelhem, ett mindre samhälle på Gotlands landsbygd, cirka fyra mil söder om Visby. READ MORE

5. 9. Exploring the Feasibility of Using Fire Dynamics Simulator to Improve the Calculation of the Wildfire Available Safe Egress Time

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

   Author : Alfred El Haddad; [2023]
   Keywords : Wildfire; Trigger buffer; WUI; WASET; FDS; QGIS; Level set; WUI evacuation.; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Wildland-Urban Interface (WUI) fires pose a significant threat to public safety and property in areas where urban development encroaches upon natural landscapes. This thesis aims to investigate the effect of smoke from a WUI fire on the tenability conditions of a small village and to establish a worst-case-scenario trigger boundary around it as an improved basis for the WUI available safe egress time (WASET).

6. 10. Suppression of Li-ion Battery Fires

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

   Author : Linfan Cai; [2023]
   Keywords : Lithium-ion Battery; Fire Suppression System; Extinguishing Agent; Thermal Runaway; Battery Energy Storage System; Electric Vehicle; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : This thesis presents a systematic literature review of fixed fire suppression systems and extinguishing agents for lithium-ion battery (LIB) fires. The review identifies 85 relevant sources published between 2013 and March 2023, and categorises different research experiments into cell-level, module-level, electric vehicle (EV) pack-level, battery energy storage system (BESS) rack-level and warehouse storage experiments, according to LIB configurations.
