Two decades ago, the 1st
Asia-Oceania Symposium on Fire Science and Technology was held in Hefei, China.
Since then, the Asia-Oceania Symposia have grown in size and quality. This
book, reflecting that growth, helps readers to understand fire safety
technology, design, and methodology in diverse areas including historical
buildings, photovoltaic panels, batteries, and electric vehicles.
