About

James Urban is an Assistant Professor at Worcester Polytechnic Institute, USA. His research primarily focuses on fire dynamics, specifically flame spread behaviors in varying airflow conditions, and the thermal interactions of burning materials. Recent publications include studies on the glowing to flaming transition in Douglas fir, radiation heat transfer models, and the impact of environmental factors on fire behavior. Urban's work aims to enhance understanding of wildfire dynamics and their implications within the context of climate change.
