Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
To reduce the risk of fire, the implementation of innovative and effective fire early warning technologies is essential. Despite the fact that research publications on fire detection technology have addressed this issue to some extent, fire detection technology still confronts hurdles in decreasing false alerts, improving sensitivity and dynamic responsibility, and providing protection for costly and complicated installations. On the other hand, the worldwide development of intelligent buildings and systems also puts forward new requirements for the integration and intelligence of fire detection.
Therefore, we are pleased to invite researchers from all over the world to explore novel and reliable fire-detection technologies, including emerging sensor technology, fire signal processing and monitoring technology, fire risk analysis and insurance, and integrated very early fire detection systems for building fires. This Special Issue wishes to provide insights into the frontiers of the latest progress in fire detection and monitoring strategies.
This Special Issue also focuses on advanced methods and techniques for fire control and suppression, as well as new progress in fire-related public safety issues. In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following:
- Building fire, industrial fire, or forest fire detection;
- Fire detection and fire dynamics;
- Flame, smoke, and/or gas detection;
- Multi parameter composite detection;
- Electronic fire risk and detection;
- Sensors associated with fire detection;
- Fire detection algorithms;
- Fire-related public safety issues;
- Fire sensors for specific locations and extreme conditions;
- New concept of fire monitoring and response systems.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Fire is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
