The knowledge of a free-burning fire's potential rate of spread is critical for safe and effective
bushfire control and use. A number of models for predicting the head-fire rate of spread in …

Purpose of Review A wildland fire is a complex phenomenon driven by the interactions of a
number of fundamental chemical and physical processes involved in the combustion and …

Forest fires are highly destructive phenomena in both ecological and economic terms.
Therefore, it is significant to develop measures to detect and mitigate them. In this study, the …
