  6. 5. 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).
