  1. 11. Development of an Environment-Accident Index : A planning tool to protect the environment in case of a chemical spill

    Författare :Åsa Scott Andersson; Mats Tysklind; Ingrid Fängmark; Olof Stjernström; Stellan Fisher; Per Leffler; Ronald Wennersten; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Environmental chemistry; Environment-Accident Index; Chemical Accidents; environmental effects; questionnaire; expert judgements; statistical multivariate design; PCA; PLS; Miljökemi; Environmental chemistry; Miljökemi;

    Sammanfattning : The increasing mass and complexity of chemicals being produced and transported has resulted in more rigorous demands on both authorities as well as chemical-handling industries to assess the risks involved. The Environment-Accident Index (EAI), has been proposed as a planning tool created as an equation in which chemical properties (variables describing the chemical involved) are combined with site-specific properties (variables describing the accident site).

  3. 12. Computer based statistical treatment in models with incidental parameters : inspired by car crash data

    Författare :Anna Vadeby; Ola Hössjer; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Mathematical model; Accident; Statistics; Analysis; Driver; Characteristics; MATHEMATICS; MATEMATIK; 812 Road: Collation of accident statistics; 812 Road: Collation of accident statistics;

    Sammanfattning : Bootstrap and Markov chain Monte Carlo methods have received much attention in recent years. We study computer intensive methods that can be used in complex situations where it is not possible to express the likelihood estimates or the posterior analytically. The work is inspired by a set of car crash data from real traffic. LÄS MER

  4. 13. Mobilization and Management of Tellurium in Severe Accident Scenarios

    Författare :Anna-Elina Pasi; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; nuclear; gamma irradiation; source term; severe accident; tellurium;

    Sammanfattning : Safety is one of the highest priorities in any industry. In the nuclear industry, safety is in the essence since in case of a nuclear accident, the consequences can be long-lasting, hazardous, and devastating to the public, environment, and the industry. LÄS MER

  5. 14. A systemic traffic accident model

    Författare :Yu-Hsing Huang; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; trafikolyckor; trafiksäkerhet; traffic safety; traffic accidents; Computer science; Datavetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : Accident models are essential for all efforts in safety engineering. They influence the investigation and analysis of accidents, the assessment of systems and the development of precautions. Looking at accident statistics, the trend for Swedish roads is not pointing towards increased safety. LÄS MER

  7. 15. DREAM: A Method for Understanding the Causation of Single-Vehicle Crashes

    Författare :Jesper Sandin; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :driver error; accident model; contributory factors; causation; single-vehicle crashes; case study; pre-crash; accident analysis;

    Sammanfattning : When conducting in-depth causation studies, it is essential that the analysis method can both define and classify contributing factors and be able to analyse how these factors may interact to produce a critical event. These issues are highly influenced by the underlying theory, e.g. the accident model. LÄS MER
