1. 1. Wildfire growth modelling in Sweden - a suitability assessment of available data

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

   Author : Henrik Hagelin; [2023]
   Keywords : Geography; GIS; Geographic Information Science; Physical geography; Prometheus; WiSE-FASS; The 2014 Västmanland wildfire; Wildfire growth modelling; Wildfire suppression support; Wildfire behaviour; MESAN; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Abstract : Wildfires are worldwide problems that stress societies by damaging their economies and they cause serious, sometimes fatal, health implications among the populations. In recent years, the rate of wildfire occurrence has increased as the global average temperature has risen. Because of global climate change, this rate is expected to continue rising. READ MORE

3. 2. Solar Photovoltaic Fire Risks : FE-analysis of fire exposed solar photovoltaic systems and comparison of current legislation and recommendations from different countries

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Byggkonstruktion och brand

   Author : Elin Bergroth; Greta Torstensson; [2023]
   Keywords : Solar Photovoltaic; National Guidelines; Fire Department; FE-analysis; TASEF; Solceller; Nationella Riktlinjer; Räddningstjänst; FE-analys; TASEF;

   Abstract : The global use of energy increases every day and to meet the growing demand, energy sources are constantly being developed to become more efficient and reliable. During the last decade, the global solar photovoltaics (PV) capacity has increased every year and in 2017, solar PV was the global leading power source of renewable energy. READ MORE

4. 3. Investigation on Enhancing Fire Threat Perception in Virtual Reality through Subject-Expectancy Effect

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

   Author : Hsuan-Ting Liu; [2023]
   Keywords : Virtual reality; safe distance; subject-expectancy effect; thermal radiation; placebo effect; fire scenario.; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : This thesis examines the use of subject-expectancy effect on enhancing fire threat perception in virtual reality. The study involves a virtual fire scenario design and 33 participants who experience virtual fires of three different scales in the scenario using a head-mounted display as visual and auditory perception and adopting physical movement in real world as their way of locomotion.

5. 4. A Web Application for Wildfire Spread Prediction and Visualisation in Sweden Using Geospatial Data and Technology

   University essay from KTH/Geoinformatik

   Author : Micael Makenzius; Jonas Bylerius; [2022]
   Keywords : Prometheus; wildfire progression; real-time; python; Django; google earth engine; Mapbox GL JS; web-application; Prometheus; skogsbrands simulering; realtid; python; Django; google earth engine; Mapbox GL JS; webbapplikation;

   Abstract : Skogsbränder är kraftfulla naturfenomen kapabla att åstakomma omfattande skada över stora ytor och medföra omfattande kostnader för sammhället både humanitärt, ekonomiskt och miljömässigt. Det finns därför ett starkt incitament att övervaka och förutspå skogsbränders utveckling och spridning. READ MORE

6. 5. 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
