SPILL AND BURNING BEHAVIOR OF FLAMMABLE LIQUIDS
… were measured for two liquid fuels and three non-flammable liquids atop a smooth concrete pad. Unconfined liquid spill thicknesses were found to be less than 0.1 cm in all fuels and liquids similar to fuels. Spill fires were conducted with volumes ranging from 0.2 ml to 450 ml for gasoline and …

The reconstruction of fires involving highly flammable hydrocarbon liquids
Highly flammable hydrocarbon liquids are involved in a high percentage of building fires, whether those fires are accidental or incendiary in origin. Their mere presence is often taken as proof of a particular fire cause by some investigators despite their limited knowledge of the behaviour of the …

Factors affecting probabilistic risk assessment of transportation of hazardous material by rail
… nuclear fuel / high level radioactive waste) and flammable liquid material (with an emphasis on crude oil due to the high yearly volume of transport) being transported by rail. In this thesis, a probabilistic risk assessment of the hazardous material transportation operations by rail is performed. …

Low Cost Manufacturing and Performance Evaluation of Soy-based Polyurethane/E-glass Composites
… of mixtures of air and hot gases or potentially flammable liquids. Vinyl ester/E-glass composites (VW type composites) were prepared to compare their properties with soy-based polyurethane composites. The VARTM process was successfully implemented to manufacture PU/E-glass and vinyl ester/E-glass …
