Pipeline transportation is widely regarded as the most cost-effective method for conveying substantial volumes of hydrogen across extensive distances. However, before hydrogen can be widely used, a new pipeline network must be built to reliably suppl...
Like many places around the world, the wildland–urban interface areas surrounding urban regions are subject to variable levels of fire risk, threatening the natural habitats they contact. This risk has been assessed by various authors using man...
SiO2 aerogel is a super-insulating material that can be used for tunnel fireproofing to eliminate high-temperature spalling and extend the safe evacuation time of personnel. This study aimed to replace traditional aggregates with SiO2 aerogel in mort...
Driving wind and slope of terrain can increase the rate of surface fire propagation. Previous physical modelling under higher driving wind (3–12.5 m/s) on slopes (Innocent et al., IJWF, 2023, 32(4), pp. 496–512 and 513–530) demonstr...
Presently, as human activity and climate warming gradually increase, straw burning leads to more accidental burning in neighbouring wetlands, which threatens wetland carbon stores. Plants are important carbon fixers in wetlands, converting carbon dio...
PVC plastic products are common combustible substances seen in fires, but their thermal degradation behavior under different oxygen concentrations has not been adequately studied. The thermal degradation behavior of PVC materials in atmospheres with...
Urban areas adjacent to wildlands are very dangerous zones for residents and their properties during a wildfire event. We attempted to connect wildfire simulations with field inventories and surveys to create a framework that can be used to enhance t...
Agricultural biomass burning plays a critical role in carbon emissions, with implications for climate change. This study aims to assess carbon (C) emissions and establish C, CO, CO2 and CH4 emission factors (EFs) by simultaneously testing the effects...
High temperatures, toxic gases, and smoke resulting from indoor fires pose evident threats to the lives of both trapped individuals and firefighters. This study aims to predict indoor fire development effectively, facilitating rapid rescue decisions...
The new situations, problems, and challenges facing urban fire safety work are gradually increasing in China, so innovating urban fire safety governance modes is an urgent task. In the fire management practice of the Chinese government, the establish...
