Integrated Risk Assessment: Current Practice and New Directions : Proceedings of the Conference on Integrated Risk Assessment Newcastle/N.S.W./Australia/1-2 June 1995 - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

This book contains the papers presented at the Conference on 'Integrated Risk Assessment: Current Practice and New Directions' in Newcastle, Australia, June 1-2, 1995. Risk and hazard assessments are currently applied to a wide range of engineering, medical, environmental and financial systems. In principle, there should be a large degree of commonality between the approaches and the techniques employed in these assessment procedures. This book highlights the multi-disciplinary nature and the various constraints of the overall problem; this should lead to a more integrated view of hazard and risk assessment procedures. Engineers, scientists, regulatory authorities and other practitioners will gain valuable insights into the development and use of present procedures and how these are likely to develop in Probabilistic Risk Assessments, Environmental Risk Assessments, Health/Environmental Effects of Hazards, Human Errors, Regulatory Measures, and Risk Management. These topics are related to the design, construction and operation of Chemical and Process Plants, Petrochemical Facilities and Other Potentially Hazardous Engineering Systems.
