Aime & Scopes
- The Journal of Fire Sciences is a leading, peer-reviewed international journal for the reporting of new and significant fundamental and applied research within the fire safety science community. Its overall content is generally aimed toward the prevention and mitigation of the adverse effects of fires involving combustible materials. Contributors and subscribers alike represent countries from around the world. Published bimonthly, the Journal of Fire Sciences addresses essentially all scientific fire aspects whose consequences are considered detrimental to life and property. Topics, generally involving experimental and theoretical studies of fire initiation and growth, fire containment, fire threat to people and the environment and fire safety engineering, frequently include the following: /// Measurement and computation of fire properties of materials and products, including ignitability, heat release, smoke and combustion product generation /// Fire retardant systems, chemistry, and methodology for materials and products /// Fire growth phenomena, including flame spread and smoke movement /// Fire detection and extinguishment based upon fire chemistry and physical phenomena /// Effects of fire effluents/emissions and heat on exposed occupants (excluding physiological and medical aspects of these effects) /// Fire forensic science /// New approaches to fire protection system design and risk analysis The content of the Journal of Fire Sciences places particular emphasis on materials, products and systems used in the transportation, electrical & electronic areas, construction, finishing and furnishing of occupancies. Consequently, the Journal is especially relevant for manufacturers, designers, users, and regulators involved with construction, transportation, textile, and numerous other industries where fire safety is of importance. Forum discussions on the intersection of fire science, fire safety engineering, and regulatory issues however, are within scope, and will be engaged in special issues from time to time where key researchers in these fields come together for special issues to give their hypotheses on these key issues for other researchers to discuss and develop experiments to prove/disprove these hypotheses.
