MATLAB Cellular Automata Simulation for Forest Fire Dynamics and Gas Diffusion Modeling

This MATLAB-based cellular automata simulation program models forest fire spread and gas diffusion dynamics. The implementation divides forest areas and atmospheric space into discrete cellular units, where each cell undergoes state transitions based on neighboring interactions and probabilistic rules. Key algorithmic features include: - Fire spread modeling using Moore neighborhood configurations with ignition probability thresholds - Gas diffusion simulation through concentration gradient calculations between adjacent cells - Visual animation outputs showing real-time propagation patterns - Adjustable parameters for wind direction, terrain properties, and combustion characteristics The simulation captures fire propagation trajectories, velocity patterns, and gas dispersion mechanisms with high extensibility. Users can modify core transition rules and boundary conditions for applications in environmental protection studies, natural disaster prevention planning, and atmospheric science research. The object-oriented architecture supports seamless integration of additional physical factors like humidity effects or multi-gas interactions through modular function updates.
