  3. 17. Near-Real Time Forest Fire Monitoring System From an UAV

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : August Näsman; Daniel Nedlich; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The purpose of this thesis is to implement a payload system on a drone to help fire towers in near-realtime survey forests for wildfires. The payload system should be able to communicate with a groundstation through a mobile network and the survey should be tagged with relevant metadata. READ MORE

  4. 18. Permanent Fire Load of the Building Envelope

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

    Keywords : Permanent fire load; temporary fire load; fire load; building envelope; insulation; building content; upholstered furniture; heat of combustion; MCC; bomb calorimeter; cone calorimeter; room corner test.; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Fire load, the total thermal energy released by the combustion of a material, is an essential part of determining a building’s fire performance and the associated fire protection strategies. Elements in a structure are typically categorized into two types of fire loads: permanent and temporary. READ MORE

  5. 19. Nature representation in forest fire management in Jämtland, Sweden

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

    Author : Swenja Dorn; [2023]
    Keywords : nature; representation; nature representation; forest fire management;

    Abstract : With a globally increasing mean temperature and drier summers in Europe, forest fires are becoming a wider known issue in the forest landscape. Having been part of the boreal forest landscape for millennia, their influence becomes more pronounced due to these changes. READ MORE

  6. 20. 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
