A Global Endeavor to Communicate Fire Knowledge

The Fire Researcher usually has a scientific background and advanced degrees. He is generally interested in identifying the phenomenology involved in a way that provides a valid mathematical algorithm for the phenomena.

Lately, the Fire Researcher has been developing computerized programs for a fire. The fire is the "load" in an engineering sense. The "resistance" is the termination efforts mankind exerts. At this point it seems to be the combustibles causing the fire growth and the shaping by the building that are most interesting. The manual and automatic water delivery systems for a fire in progress have not yet been computerized.

Several persons in this part of the Fire Community have offered to assist those with questions, or those who are exploring our professions to see if a career is this area might be appealing. The people available can be found on the Advisors page.
