The structure fire is often too casually deemed the “bread and butter” of the fire service. But the working fire of the 1970s and 1980s is not the working fire of today. The combustibility of today’s ...

Fire dynamics examines the processes governing ignition, flame propagation and heat release in combustible mixtures, encompassing phenomena from buoyancy-driven flows to turbulence-flame interactions.

The Fire Dynamics Bootcamp kicked off Firehouse World with an in-depth discussion of fire science and terminology, as well as lab test burns and tabletop exercises to help apply research concepts to ...

Climate change is increasingly influencing fire behavior worldwide and intensifying fire smoke, endangering public health from air pollution caused by fires. These are the results of two new climate ...

NFPA 1700, Guide for Structural Fire Fighting, is the first NFPA document connecting fire dynamics research to response strategy, tactics, and best practices for firefighters controlling fires within ...

This class will show the symbiotic mutualistic relationship between fire dynamics and the fireground. It’s a detailed approach of how fireground tactics and tasks affect fire dynamics. Attendees will ...

Fire acts as both a natural disturbance and a driver of ecosystem change across a wide range of terrestrial biomes. The behaviour of fire—shaped by fuel quantity and continuity, weather conditions and ...
