Fire response time greatly depends on street connectivity and the street network density of the city (Kiran & Corcoran, 2017). Therefore, residential fire scenarios in urban and rural areas are different, and rural areas sometimes cause more damage, death rates, and injuries than urban areas (...
All the decedents were inside the dwelling when the fire started, and 45% were in the same room as the fire. Six decedents escaped from the building during the fire but were fatally injured after they reentered the structure. For those 18 years and older, the medical examiner determined ...
The fire resistance behaviour of the building is evaluated by considering three realistic alternative ventilation scenarios. Numerical predictions of the temporal evolution of various parameters such as gas velocity, gas and wall temperatures, toxic gas concentrations and smoke movement are obtained for ...
Applicable scenarios family housing, temporary residence, post earthquake resettlement, highways, railways, buildings, wind power, thermal power, photovoltaics, oil, emergency response for rural dilapidated buildings, etc. Company Profile Fucheng Ruiteng Steel Structure Co., ...
Except ozone depletion, where the difference in impact between scenarios is <1%, replacing fireproofing with charring is beneficial for all impact categories. The embodied energy assessment of the building types reveals that, on average, the total primary energy in the hybrid CLT buildings and ...
In the future, both outflows and inflows will be influenced by housing demand and material use strategies. On a global level, the outflow-to-inflow ratio of building materials will see a continuous increase in both Baseline and High Efficiency scenarios. The High Efficiency scenario would see ...
We will conduct credit risk analysis for estimated default frequency and loss severity of the securitized pool, and cash flow test against the proposed credit enhancement level and transaction structure, in light of our criteria requirement and stressed rating scenarios' assumptions. Rating Committee ...
an appropriate lighting environment. The proposed system designed in this study includes three types of processing: first, the creation of a lighting environment index suitable for the user’s surroundings and lighting control scenarios and second, it measures and analyzes the optical characteristics ...
This chapter presents the results of the model estimates according to the structure presented in the model specification section. As a first step, the estimation of the multinomial logit (MNL) specification is performed, followed by the latent class (LC) and hybrid latent class (HLC) models. It...
Table 1. Emission Reduction Scenarios Explored in this Work. ScenarioMajor assumptions Improved Stoves: cleanest current stove Cleanest existing stoves in each land type and fuel for all end-uses Improved stoves: stove standards Stoves that meet performance standards for cooking, water heating, and he...
