Résumé When the Notre-Dame de Paris Cathedral burnt, the oak frame was almost
completely destroyed. The temperatures reached were determined by an original method of …

Abstract The Chauvet-Pont d'Arc Cave (Ardèche, France), famous for its remarkable rock art,
also contains unique thermal-alterations such as rock spalling and color changes on the …

Résumé Chars are useful proxies in many disciplines such as the geosciences and
archaeology. Raman spectrometry is frequently used in the characterization of such …

A tunnel fire is a dangerous accident, which may lead to serious injuries and deaths. This
work studies the flow of combustion products during naturally ventilated tunnel fires, ie …

Fires are complex multi-physics problems that span wide spatial scale ranges. Capturing
this complexity in computationally affordable numerical simulations for process studies and …

The numerical simulation of fires concerns an increasingly wide range of applications,
among which archaeology. The Chauvet-Pont d'Arc Cave (France) presents thermal marks …

In 1994, three speleologists discovered the Chauvet–Pont d'Arc Cave, which contains
singular thermal marks on walls deep in the cavity. These alterations arose from intense …

Lorsque la cathédrale Notre-Dame de Paris a brûlé, la charpente en chêne a été presque
entièrement détruite. Les températures atteintes ont été déterminées par une méthode …

2.1 Background Longitudinal ventilation systems in road tunnels are designed for operation
during a design fire at a minimum flow velocity. Usually a one-dimensional, steady-state flow …

In order to study the influence of fire location on heat and mass transfer and smoke hazard in
the room when a fire occurs, the indoor fire model was constructed by using fire dynamics …
