The increase in the number of forest fires in the last few years dispatch governments to take precautions. Besides prevention, early intervention is also very important in fire fighting. If the firefighters know where the fire will be in some time, it would be easier for them to stop the fire. Therefore a big need for simulating the fire behavior exists. In this paper we are proposing a system which can simulate the propagation of fire in time. Also this system can visualize the propagation of fire in any 3D-GIS environment, that accepts KMZ as a file format. Besides, any user demanded data can be visualized on the map of the system. This gives the chance of fire planning to firefighters. The system can visualize its results on 3D screens in 3D. Therefore, a better understanding of the terrain can be obtained.

Fire tests of cut and cover tunnel roof segments at positive moment region Arsava, Kemal Sarp; Arsava, Kemal Sarp; Department of Civil Engineering (2011) The most important issue during a tunnel fire is safety of human life. The tunnel fire structural research and investigations have gained more importance in the last decade but studies show variable results depending on the concrete quality and tunnel design fire. For instance, a certain type of concrete with high moisture content can tend to explode in the first 10-15 minutes of fire with rapid increase of heat release rate. A sudden collapse of the tunnel roof during the fire is unacceptable. Especially i...
CFD simulation of train fire in the İstanbul metro tunnel Bilge, Mahir İlter; Aksel, Mehmet Haluk; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2018) Underground metro networks are expanding rapidly in all around the world and during the last few decades, tunnel fire accidents with severe casualties occurred in various countries. The frequency of the tunnel fire incidents will be increasing due to the increased amount of underground transportation routes in the upcoming years. In order to prevent the loss of lives in tunnel fires, accurate design of Tunnel Ventilation Systems is crucial. This research thesis presents the simulation of a mid-train fire sc...

Resilience for Fire Safety Kızılkaya Öksüz, Nilüfer; Tanyer, Ali Murat (2019-06-28) The paradigm shift of disaster management studies from reactive strategies with rapid mobilization of resources and disaster responses to proactive strategies with hazard mitigation and vulnerability reduction have been reflecting the fire hazard researches. That paradigm shift directs fire safety management studies to the “concept of resilience,” which focuses on the capacity of human and physical systems to respond to extreme events. Despite its importance, fire safety issues are mostly considered as indi...
Bandwidth determination for kernel density analysis of wildfire events at forest sub-district scale KUTER, SEMİH; Usul, Nurunnisa; KUTER, NAZAN (2011-09-10) Forest fire is regarded as one of the most significant factors leading to land degradation. While evaluating fire hazard or producing fire risk zone maps, quantitative analyses using historic fire data is often required, and during all these modeling and multi-criteria analysis processes, the fire event itself is taken as the dependent variable. However, there are two main problematic issues in analyzing historic fire data. The first difficulty arises from the fact that it is in point format, whereas a cont...
