1/1

Fire Technology

FT is the interdisciplinary journal by theNational Fire Protection Association(NFPA) and Springer, spanning the wholerange of fire safety science andengineering. It is the oldest fire journal,publishing uninterruptedly since 1965.The aims are to provide and advocate forresearch and education in fire safetyengineering, and reduce the worldwideburden of fire hazards.

Paper Submission

Authors are encouraged to submit high-quality, original work that has neither

appeared in, nor is under consideration by,other journals. All open submissions will bepeer reviewed subject to the standards ofthe journal. Manuscripts based onpreviously published conference papersmust be extended substantially.

The journal accepts three types ofmanuscripts (full papers, case studies andshort communications). Letters to the Editorare also considered.

Call for Papers:

Special IssueFire Hazards in

Energy SystemsPaper submission deadline: 1st Feb, 2014

Given recent fire disasters like the oil train at Lac-Megantic orthe 25

thanniversary ofPiper Alpha, the ongoing acceleration in

energy demand and the new range of technologies introducedcall for an in-depth examination of fire safety engineering in theproduction, storage and distribution of power.

Papers are invited as part of a special issue ofFire Technologydevoted to the state of the art in fire science and technologyrelated to energy systems. Of interest are research studies(experimental, computational, theoretical) and case studies thatmay contribute towards the understanding or the solution of

engineering problems. The range of topics of interest is broadand interdisciplinary, and includes:

Renewable energies (eg, biomass, wind, solar)

Oil and gas (eg, LNG, onshore and offshore).

Nuclear plants

Energy storage (eg, batteries, hydrogen)

Electrical and other distribution networks (eg, pipelines,rail, shipping)

New technologies (eg, oxyfuel, tar sands, shale gas,sustainable buildings).
