I Talk Slower Than I Think by C.D. Bonner

And that was results of experiments, tests done at different commercial labs using AI and some clever processing, to filter out new knowledge from already existing data. And trying to learn from what we have at the moment. Matt has spent a significant amount of time researching facade fires. Matthew Bonner from Imperial College London.

And that's the topic of today's episode with Dr. And, yeah, I think you can see that the most in the facade fire region, where it's obvious that we've seen more facade fires in the first first pages of the of the newsletters in the last decade, than in the whole length of time that I remember, it's obvious that there are more facade fires, and they're bigger than ever. And some technologies introduced to improve the efficiency or other parameters of our buildings, maybe unintentionally changed the fire properties or buildings, leading to some really dangerous designs that end up with bad fires. With all these efforts, I think we sometimes lose the sight on the fire safety of them. In the pursuit to change the building industry into something more environmentally friendly, and trying to make our buildings green, and I don't mean the color, make them more net efficient, make them consume carbon not released that while being built. I didn't mention this in the episode, but this research got Matt the 2020 SFPE Student Scholar Award, and he kind of landed on the first page of Financial Times.But yeah, once you listen to what he has to say, you will know there is some quality and solid science in there! I hope you will enjoy the episode! - LinkedIn Discussion Thread - Useful links - The paper on complexity: The paper on the facade fire database based on the Polish method we have talked about: Wikipedia page - list of high-rise facade fires: Find Imperial Hazelab at Find Matt Bonner at: I think he has passed the test and provided useful knowledge that was a starting point for multiple follow up projects. His research has started few months before the Grenfell, and the tragedy has definitely made more eyes follow his studies. His flavour is tackling the complexity through big data analyses and developing new ways to use AI to help us in future.

Dr Matthew Bonner of the Imperial College London is one of the leading scientists touching on the subject of the fire safety of facades.
