Cheap cameras and improvements in memory and computing power have enabled the design of fire detectors using video surveillance systems.
Design of fire and explosion barriers fits well with the current engineering skills and work-processes in investment projects.
All these findings would provide theoretical basis for the design of fire detection system in the aircraft cargo compartment.
Further model development is needed to better predict fire responses and to assist the design of fire mosaics that can accommodate early and late successional fire specialists.
The needs and design of fire retardant composites are currently in a state of flux created by the changing face of European fire testing requirements.
The paper makes detailed analysis to their specific contents, and gives comparative analysis to these two standards, including terminology, basic provisions, design of fire linkage control, selection of fire detectors, settings of system equipment, system power supply, and cabling, etc.
This paper presents experimental and numerical investigations on the fire behaviour of reinforced concrete (RC) slabs flexurally strengthened with CFRP laminates, aiming at developing a methodology for the design of fire protection systems.
The design of fire relief systems for petroleum refineries, petrochemical, chemical and natural gas plants requires two accurate system design parameters: the latent heat of vaporization and sonic velocity.
These results, obtained at ambient temperature, were then incorporated in a simplified procedure that is proposed for the design of fire protection systems of CFRP-strengthened RC flexural members.
Based on the space layout, project operation and configuration of recreation facility of a real case of a large indoor theme park, this paper demonstrated the performance based fire design of fire zone, safety of occupant evacuation, fire suppression system, selection of fire detectors, as well as settings of mechanical smoke extraction for the park.
