The thesis deals with establishment of performance-based fire safety. Cruical tool to achieve this are computer simulations whose results are greatly influenced by the input data which have to represent realistic scenarios. Considering stochastic nature of fires, input data have to be statistically validated. By doing this, greater reliability of the results can be achieved.

COBISS.SI-ID: 258408960Different vehicles driving along roads exposed to a strong cross wind can be forced from their expected path and even be blown over. Even the driver’s natural tendency to compensate by manipulating the steering wheel may increase the likelihood of an accident. This paper will primarily present the equipment used for real time data acquisition and methods used to determine the relations between wind speed and direction and the vehicle dynamic. Instruments' setup consists of GNSS based integrated sensors.

COBISS.SI-ID: 2183523Ventilation systems in semi-enclosed spaces, such as tunnels, are of crucial importance for maintenance of sufficient air quality during normal and emergency conditions. During fire accidents smoke exhaustion is crucial for evacuation and rescue. The monograph assesses different types of tunnel ventilation systems and control of ventilation during emergency conditions. Effectiveness and reliability are crucial during tunnel fires and other emergency situations. Interactions between ventilation and fire fighting systems and other tunnel equipment are analyzed.
