EVENTO
A Wildland Fire Model with Data Assimilation
Tipo de evento: Seminário LNCC
A wildfire model is formulated based on balance equations for energy and fuel,where the fuel loss due to combustion corresponds to the fuel reaction rate.The resulting coupled partial differential equations have coefficients thatcan be approximated from prior measurements of wildfires. An Ensemble KalmanFilter technique is then used to assimilate temperatures measured at selectedpoints into running wildfire simulations. The assimilation technique is ableto modify the simulations to track the measurements correctly even if thesimulations were started with an erroneous ignition location that is quite faraway from the correct one.
