Numerical Simulation of High Expansion Foam Into Conduits and Mine Openings
High expansion foam (Hi-Ex) is a firefighting technology that has been widely used for fire suppression in underground locations. Hi-ex foam can be applied remotely through boreholes from the surface reducing firefighter exposure to fires. Despite the experimental studies that have been carried out …

Development of Potential Remote Coal Mine Fire Response Measures: Use of Multiple Passive Source Tracers and Simulation of High Expansion Foam Flow in Simulated Gob Material
… and sealing of the mine openings. Injection of high expansion foam into the gob from the surface has potential to improve extinguishment of the fire and reduce the time needed to bring the mine back to an operational state. The applicability of this method requires computational modeling and …

Reconfiguring the ship environment for damage stability enhancement
… risk post flooding accidents is unacceptably high, meaning that the most-cost-effective way to reduce flooding risk is to target the residual risk. This being the case, the prevailing situation can be drastically improved through understanding of the underlying mechanisms leading to vessel …
