1. Integrating Fire Evacuation into the Building Information Modelling Workflow
University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för BrandteknikAbstract : 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

2. The Application of a Wildfire Evacuation Tool to Swedish locations
University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för BrandteknikAbstract : 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

3. The Development of A Simple Engineering Calculation Method for Wildfire Scenarios
University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för BrandteknikAbstract : 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

4. Mescape - A probabilistic mesoscopic model for fire evacuation in large gatherings
University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för BrandteknikAbstract : This study presents a mesoscopic model that predicts pedestrian evacuation in large gatherings with probabilistic methods. The model is based on a coarse network representation of buildings, where occupants are treated at a different scale according to their location. READ MORE

5. Testing macroscopic traffic evacuation models for wildland-urban interface fires
University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för BrandteknikAbstract : This thesis presents the verification and validation testing performed on the evacuation simulation platform WUI-NITY which has the aim of being a simulation tool for the integration of different layers, such as pedestrian, traffic and wildfire with evolving dynamic interactions. The present thesis aims at applying a set of verification tests and validation testing suitable for WUI-NITY with a focus on the traffic component. READ MORE
