Physical model of wildland fire spread: Parametric uncertainty analysis

For the physical model of wildland fire spread, errors or discrepancies in the prediction of spread rate may arise from uncertain, imprecise or improper determinations of the model parameters due to unreasonable assumptions, rough approximations, or inaccurate measurements. In this study, a parametric uncertainty analysis is made on a typical model of upslope fire spread that is consistent with many other models in the framework of the heat...
