Background and aims: Providing the adequate flow and water pressure in the firefighting network of the power plants requires the proper design and analysis of the firefighting system. This study aimed to model and hydraulic analysis the fire network in a combined cycle power plant to determine the network efficiency in the extinguishing of the possible fire. Methods: In the present study, the ...
With the advancement in human technology the risk of natural and man induced catastrophes increased exponentially. One of most dangerous disaster is forest fire. The forest fire represents continuous threat to species of flora as well as fauna. This paper highlights the powerful feature of wireless sensors for forest fire detection. The sensor data is collected using Arduino development board a...
Public debates on science-based policy continue to grow in breadth and intensity. In the sector of land and water resource policy, substantial public uncertainty exists regarding such topics as the nature and management of global warming, forest fires, urban sprawl, and river systems. At the heart of the uncertainty is overwhelming complexity of interactions within systems, avalanches of data f...
Title of Document: FIREFIGHTING IN THE NEW ECONOMY: CHANGES IN SKILL AND THE IMPACT OF TECHNOLOGY Brian W. Ward, Ph.D., 2010 Directed By: Dr. Bart Landry, Department of Sociology To better understand the shift in workers’ skills in the New Economy, a case study of professional firefighters (n=42) was conducted using semi-structured interviews to empirically examine skill change and the impact o...

In the subway station fires, the most immediate threat to passengers’ life is not the direct exposure to fire, but the smoke inhalation because it contains hot air and toxic gases. Theoretical analysis and CFD simulations are applied to analyze the various possible ventilation model and obtain the optimization of ventilation mode in the subway station fires. According to the structure character...
This paper discusses the possibility of using multiple low-altitude, short endurance (LASE) Unmanned Air Vehicles (UAVs) to cooperatively monitor a forest fire. The UAVs will individually track the fire’s perimeter by means of an on board infrared sensor. Using a decentralized cooperation scheme the UAV team will collect data and upload it to a base station. Simulation results are presented tha...
A typical application field of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) is the collection of environmental data, which is sent to a base station. Routing protocols are needed to efficiently direct the information flows to the base station. Since sensor nodes have strict energy constraints, data gathering and communication schemes for WSNs need to be designed for an efficient utilization of the available...
Background: With breakdown of the former structures and the acceleration of urbanization process in recent decades, cities need careful planning in order to provide citizens needs including safety city. Thus, one of the major tasks of planners and urban managers is to determine the proper location for the establishment of fire stations. Method: In this descriptive-analytic study, given that m...
