Fire Spreading Simulation in Large Buildings Based on Cellular Automata
نویسنده
چکیده
The buildings fire safety is currently an important subject for researchers and practitioners due to probable incidents that can happen inside industrial plants, large public buildings or transport facilities: fires, explosions, toxic releases, etc. Even minor events can seriously endanger life, goods and environment. Particularly, fire spreading in large buildings represents a major threat that can be investigated using computer simulation to reduce its severe consequences. The cellular automata based method presented in this paper represents a fast and interactive tool designed for fire spreading investigation in large buildings. Key-Words: fire simulation, cellular automata, transition rule.

Dynamic Structure Cellular Automata in a Fire Spreading Application
Studying complex propagation phenomena is usually performed through cellular simulation models. Usually cellular models are specific cellular automata developed by non-computer specialists. We attempt to present here a mathematical specification of a new kind of CA. The latter allows to soundly specify cellular models using a discrete time base, avoiding basic CA limitations (infinite lattice, ...
متن کاملA cellular automata model for predicting fire spread
A new model for predicting fire propagation in homogeneous environments, based on the transfer of a fractional burned area, is introduced in this paper. A particular type of discrete dynamical system, called a hexagonal bidimensional cellular automaton, is used in order to design the model. The simulations obtained are found to be in agreement with the experience of fire spreading in real forests.
متن کاملA Cellular Automata Model for Fire Spreading Prediction
The modeling of fire spread in a flammable area is an interesting and challenging issue, widely studied in literature. Some of the models used for fire front evolution prediction are based on Cellular Automata (CA) approach, and they have shown a good agreement with other models and with experimental data. In this paper, the authors propose a new approach to this kind of models, introducing an ...
متن کاملCellular Automata Evacuation Model Considering Information Transfer in Building with Obstacles
The buildings are usually divided into two categories in light of whether obstacles exist: the large space with no obstacles (C-type buildings) and the complex buildings with lots of obstacles (L-type buildings). In this paper, considering the aisle region attraction factor, we proposed a revised model which is suitable to simulate the evacuation process in the L-type buildings (such as classro...
