This product is a PDF that contains links to files that consist of PowerPoint slides synchronized with the audio-recording of the speaker (recorded presentation), PDF files of the slides, and audio only (mp3) as noted.

This seminar represents a number of recent computational analysis studies in fire and life safety. For a flammable liquid cargo fire in a road tunnel, the fire size and amount of smoke and heat were determined by the plume area from CFD analysis and confirmed by the experimentation. CFD analysis was also performed to evaluate the effect of tunnel fire suppression system by analyzing the tenability condition in the tunnel and the heat exposure on the structure. The final speaker will introduce the use of pedestrian modeling software in the development of emergency response plans for a city-wide evacuation.
