William Mell,William Mell,Samuel L. Manzello,Alexander Maranghides,David T. Butry,Ronald G. Rehm +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, fuel treatment techniques for wildland and residential fuels, risk assessment strategies, economic cost analysis models, and test methods with representative exposure conditions for fire-resistant building designs and materials are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Numerical simulation and experiments of burning douglas fir trees
TL;DR: In this paper, a numerical model capable of representing the spatial distribution of vegetation in a tree crown is presented and evaluated against tree burning experiments in the Large Fire Laboratory of the National Institute of Standards of Technology.
Journal ArticleDOI
Firebrand generation from burning vegetation
TL;DR: A series of real-scale fire experiments were performed to determine the size and mass distribution of firebrands generated from Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) trees as mentioned in this paper.
