Wildfire modeling

In computational science, wildfire modeling is concerned with numerical simulation of wildland fires in order to understand and predict fire behavior. Wildfire modeling can ultimately aid wildland fire suppression, namely increase safety of firefighters and the public, reduce risk, and minimize damage. Wildfire modeling can also aid in protecting ecosystems, watersheds, and air quality. (Wikipedia).

Red geometry (I) | WildTrig: Intro to Rational Trigonometry | N J Wildberger

Red geometry is a two dimensional relativistic geometry in the spirit of rational trigonometry, using variants of the usual quadrance and spread. The usual grid plane is still the arena in which this geometry lives, but the notion of perpendicularity is new. A wonderful new world of geomet

Green geometry (II) | WildTrig: Intro to Rational Trigonometry | N J Wildberger

We show that the laws of trigonometry in the relativistic green setting are exactly the same as for Euclidean geometry, and the same as for the red relativistic geometry. We also draw some pictures of `green circles', which are rectangular hyperbolas with asymptotes the coordinate axes, an

An introduction to chromogeometry | WildTrig: Intro to Rational Trigonometry | N J Wildberger

Chromogeometry is a new three-fold symmetry in planar geometry, that brings together the usual Euclidean geometry (here called `blue') with two relativistic geometries (called `red' and `green'). There are two basic principles: that the three geometries are essentially alike, and that they
