Physics-Based Modeling of Fire Spread in Densely-Built Urban Areas - Some Implications to the Modeling of Fire Spread in WUI Fires

Webinar

Urban fires pose a persistent hazard in Japanese urban areas. To address this, various fire spread models have been developed, with many relying on empirical formulations. However, to enhance model generality, a shift towards physics-based formulations is explored.
