Abstract: Abstract Forest fires can be classified into two regimes, depending on Byram convective number NC: a plume-dominated and wind-driven regime. This classification is often based on two-dimensional (2D) studies without considering flame front structures, and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1071/wf18014
Abstract: With fuel moisture content and slope, wind velocity (U W) is one of the major physical parameters that most affects the behaviour of wildland fires. The aim of this short paper was to revisit the… read more here.
