This paper introduces a novel algorithm—YOLOv8 (You Only Look Once version 8) + FRMHead (a multi-branch feature refinement head) + Slimneck (a lightweight bottleneck module), abbreviated as YFSNet—for lithium-ion battery fire and smoke detection in complex backgrounds. By integrating advanced module...

The frequency, severity, and scale of extreme wildfire events is increasing globally, with certain regions such as the western United States disproportionately impacted. As attention shifts toward understanding how to adapt to and recover from extreme wildfire, there is a need to prioritize where ad...

Structural fires pose significant risks to the built environment, making fire resistance a critical design consideration for reinforced concrete (RC) structures. Elevated temperatures during fires reduce the strength and stiffness of both concrete and steel reinforcement, compromising load-bearing c...

The Orinoquía region of Colombia includes diverse ecosystems such as riparian forests and seasonal savannas, which play vital roles as biodiversity reservoirs. However, increased fire activity, driven by both natural and anthropogenic pressures, poses mounting threats to these ecosystems. Despite th...

Governments often plan multiple fire stations simultaneously to improve firefighting capabilities, but constructing them within limited resources and time remains a challenge. A spatial decision support model is proposed in this study to determine the prioritized construction sequence of urban fire...

Abstract Prescribed fire is a land management practice utilized in fire‐adapted ecosystems to reduce wildfire risks, control invasive, exotic and woody plant species, enhance productivity and biodiversity, and share knowledge of land and culture. Fire exclusion has been the dominant management regim...

The thermal conductivity of steel is high compared to other materials such as concrete or timber. Therefore, fire protection measures are applied to prolong the duration between the onset of fire exposure and the final loss of load-bearing function of a steel structure. The most common passive fire...
