Improving the efficiency of stair evacuation plays a crucial role in emergency management, which may be shaped by pedestrians’ lane-selection behavior. However, most existing studies describe pedestrians’ lane-selection preferences during...
Modeling and visualizing zones within the spread of toxic clouds from fires and explosions during accidents at industrial facilities located near residential areas is of high practical value. This tool is critical for the rapid planning of population...
In order to achieve the goal of carbon neutrality, the installed capacity of photovoltaic (PV) modules has been increasing rapidly. In particular, single-glass PV modules are widely deployed in both utility-scale and distributed PV power generation s...
Cables, which are critical for power and signal transmission in complex buildings and underground infrastructure, are exposed to elevated fire risks during operation, making reliable risk prediction essential for building fire safety. This study prop...
Existing coal spontaneous combustion liability assessments suffer from incomplete temperature range coverage, poor cross-rank comparability, and weak correlations between microscopic essence and macroscopic criteria—issues that undermine reliab...
Petrochemical fires pose severe threats to public safety and environmental sustainability, necessitating urgent advancements in efficient and eco-friendly fire suppression technologies. This study systematically investigated the influence of gas&ndas...
To improve the fire safety performance of fire protection renovation projects for existing public buildings, this paper systematically sorts out and analyzes relevant research studies, accident reports, and fire protection renovation codes and guidel...
Firefighting requires high and multidimensional fitness to ensure operational readiness and public safety. In Portugal, there is limited data regarding firefighters’ fitness and exercise programs to improve readiness are lacking. This study eva...
This study examines the influence of ignition position on explosion characteristics in linked vessels with a methane concentration gradient, aiming to support the safety of industrial combustible gas storage systems. A numerical simulation method was...
The issue of overpressure at fire doors in escape passage is often overlooked in traditional tunnel design. Current design approaches tend to overemphasize maintaining positive pressure inside the passage for smoke prevention, which results in excess...
