Abstract

This paper deals with the general relationships between nonthermal damage and fire initiation, fire spread, generation of fire products, environmental conditions, and orientation and surface characteristics of targets. Data reported in the literature by various researchers have been used in the paper to discuss the relationships. Tests currently being used to assess corrosion in various laboratories and the long-range nonthermal damage research at Factory Mutual Research Corporation are reviewed.
