An understanding of this effect could lead to more reliable guidelines for the establishment of firefighter safety zones, which are regions in wildfire areas that have been determined as safe for the survival of the firefighter. This paper discusses the ability of two commercial computational fluid...
For wildfires, researchers have developed detailed frameworks to quantify the potential of fire spread in wildlands; however, there is currently no standardized method of risk assessment that can be applied to WUI communities nationwide31. The propagation behavior of WUI fires inside a community can b...
