Journal of Fire Sciences (JFS)
Journal Descriptions
The Journal of Fire Sciences is a long‑standing international research journal (first published in 1983) that serves as a premier platform for disseminating innovative scientific and engineering research on fire behavior and fire safety. Published bimonthly by SAGE Publications Ltd., this journal addresses critical challenges in understanding how fires start, develop, and can be controlled or mitigated in engineered and natural environments. Its content emphasizes rigorous experimental and theoretical investigations into fire chemistry, physics, material flammability, flame‑retardant systems, and fire safety engineering applications. Articles often offer new insights into fire property measurement, computational modeling of fire dynamics, risk analysis, and performance of materials and structures under fire exposure. Researchers worldwide contribute to the journal, bringing diverse perspectives from mechanical engineering, materials science, safety risk management, and combustion science. The Journal of Fire Sciences is a key resource for scientists, engineers, designers, regulators, and safety professionals who seek to improve fire safety practices and develop new technologies to reduce the adverse effects of fires on life and property. Its emphasis on both theoretical depth and practical relevance ensures that it remains an influential publication in the global fire science community.
