The thesis presents an effort at developing a robust, interactive framework for rendering 3-D fire in real-time in a production environment. Many techniques of rendering fire in non real-time exist and are constantly employed by the movie industry. Many of the systems developed for rendering fire in offline mode directly influenced and inspired real-time fire rendering, including this thesis. M...

We have reached our goal of implementing a computationally cheap algorithm for realtime rendering of realistic two-dimensional fire. The fire is simulated using computational fluid dynamics, vorticity confinement, and combustion modelling and visualized using black-body radiation. Small rotationally homogenous fires like torches and candles viewed in front are the best candidates when using thi...

In this investigation, detection dogs are trained and used in identifying red imported fire ants, Solenopsis invicta Buren, and their nests. The methodology could assist in reducing the frequency and scope of chemical treatments for red imported fire ant management and thus reduce labor costs and chemical use as well as improve control and quarantine efficiency. Three dogs previously trained fo...

The incidence of escaped agricultural fire has recently been increasing in the Western Amazon, driven by climate variability, land use change, and changes in patterns of residency and land occupation. Preventing and mitigating the negative impacts of fire in the Amazon require a comprehensive understanding not only of what the drivers of fire activity are, but also how these drivers interact an...
