| Projects and Funded Research
The Motor Vehicle Fire Research Institute funded several projects in fire safety or fire related research. These projects included activities in real-world data analysis of impact induced fires and fuel-leakage, experimental testing of fuel systems, evaluation of state-of-the-art technologies for preventing and/or mitigating impact fires, and more. The following are summaries of contracts that were awarded to perform this research.
