  3. Dr. Carvel (PredFireNano) Dr. Switzer (STAR) Prof. Rivera (FireParadox) The Fire Safety Engineering Group • Prof. Dougal Drysdale (Emeritus) • Prof Jose L. Torero (Fire dynamics) • Dr Gillie (Structures in fire) • Dr Welch (Fire dynamics) • Dr Asif Usmani (Structures in fire) • Dr Rein (Fire dynamics, solid combustion) • Dr Stratford • Dr Gerhard

  4. Current Interests • Design against fire • Understand structural behaviour in fire • Design against it • Move away from simple fire protection • Full-scale fire tests at Dalmarnock • Large-scale finite element models • Cooling of structures • Locked in stresses • Travelling fire (vertically and horizontally) • Rehabilitation of structures • FireGrid • Integrated response to emergencies • Real-time computing • sensing

  5. Structural Cooling Stress Tension during cooling Mechanical strain or temperature Compression during heating Uniform heating then cooling

  6. Structures Cooling Axial restraint Composite beam Instrumented rebar Concrete Steel Hollow rebar T Sensors t
