Title: Brandverhalten von Flugzeugsitzen und deren Komponenten
Author: K. Dussa, R.Fiala, P. Grefte, R. Wagner
Abstract: Die bei Flugzeugsitzen verwendeten Kunststoffe werden, je nach ihrem Verwendungszweck, nach unterschedlichen Testmethoden hinsichtlich ihres Brandverhaltens getestet. Die 8itzkissen mlissen den 8eat-cushion-Test erflillen. Die restlichen Teile wie Verkleidungen, Armlehnen, Klapptisch usw nur den Bunsenbrenner-Test. Die im folgenden beschriebenen Versuche sollen zur Klarung bzw. Beantwortung der Frage, ob die genannten Teile auch die 08U- bzw. NB8-Kriterien erflillen sollten, beitraqen.

Title: Cabin Water Fire Suppression Systems - When and how effective?
Author: Richard Lewis
Abstract: Many organizations have carried out tests. The ability of a known density of correctly sized water droplets to suppress the effects of fire, is proven. The amount of water required has in tests, been reduced to as little as 8 US gallons for many aircraft types. A convincing case can be made to demonstrate that a Cabin Water Fire Suppression System (CWFS) could save many more lives in the next 40 years than some other presently installed systems have saved in the past 40 years.

Title: Cabin Water Sprays For Fire Suppression: An Experimental Evaluation
Author: S.A. Ames, D.A. Purser
Abstract: This report describes the results of a series of experiments to investigate the effectiveness of on-board low volume water sprays in reducing the risk of passengers in an aircraft cabin exposed to a severe external fire.

Title: Carbon Fiber Production at Low Temperatures from Polyacryonite
Author: D.E. Cagliostro
Abstract: Recent safety considerations have sought to lower the electrical conductivity of carbon fibers. Carbon fibers produced from polycryonitrile at low carbonization temperatures (600 degree � 900C) possess low electrical conductivity but do not possess adequate strength. Low temperature processes are described which improve fiber strength but not increase electrical conductivity substantially. The processes result in a carbon fiber with nearly twice the tensile strength compared to the old process. Process development and its effect on fiber properties are reported.
