Abstract
Computational modelling of fire-structural response
requires interoperability of various models describing
different physical phenomena. Typically, the most
advanced sub-models are found within independent
simulation software incapable of interoperability. To
address this issue, we have developed a tool for coupling
two of such programs: Fire Dynamics Simulator and ABAQUS.
We present the main features and theory behind the
coupling approach and use an example case to demonstrate
how a coupled fire-structural analysis is set up. We also
discuss potential applications and present limitations of
our approach.
