There is a persistent risk of large-scale fire conflagrations in informal settlements, which can threaten hundreds of people simultaneously. Although the literature implies that wind conditions have a significant impact on these fires, litt...
Investigating Numerically the Effect of Wind on Fire Spread Between Two Informal Settlements Dwellings [0.03%]
数值研究风对两个临时定居点之间火灾蔓延的影响
