In recent years, evacuation models have been increasingly applied in an attempt to understand the outcome of emergency egress scenarios. This has been due to the increased use of performance-based design and the availability of cost-effective, high

Ignition of Vegetation and Mulch by Firebrands in Wildland/Urban Interface (WUI) Fires.

November 13, 2005
Author(s)
Samuel L. Manzello, Thomas G. Cleary, John R. Shields, Jiann C. Yang
Firebrands or embers are produced as trees and structures burn in wildland/urban interface (WUI) fires. Hot firebrands ultimately come to rest and may ignite fuels far removed from the fire, resulting in fire spread. It is believed that firebrand showers
