The book treats such extremely low-frequency phenomena from a technological perspective, studying possible causes and introducing several approaches to assess and control the risks of these scenarios. The authors also examine these events from a managerial viewpoint, discussing single and multi-plant management insights and requirements to take pro-active measures to prevent such events. Academics, regulators, and industrialists who study and analyze domino effects in order to prevent such events will find the book unique and highly valuable.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e1. Historical background (Seveso legislation) and importance of academic research of domino effects 2. Relevant case-histories and analysis of past accidents 3. Features of escalation scenarios 4. 4 Overpressure effects 5. Heat radiation effects 6. Missile projection 7. Other causes of Domino Effect 8. Approaches to domino effect prevention and mitigation 9. Threshold-based approach 10. Quantitative risk assessment of domino accidents 11. Detailed studies 12. Managing domino effects from a design-based viewpoint 13. Managing domino effects from a safety viewpoint 14. Decision Support Systems for preventing domino effects\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e Conclusions Nomenclature Glossary\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAnnexes 1 tutorial for the main methodologies in section 3 1 tutorial for the main methodologies in section 4\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Industrial chemistry [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Industrial chemistry\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Industrial%20chemistry%20%5BTDC%5D%22\"\u003eTDC\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Elsevier","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46651499774232,"sku":"9780444543233","price":96.19,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/products\/9780444543233_5df8d8c0-1577-4cb4-ac60-2531fdb0e117.jpg?v=1694987239","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/domino-effects-in-the-process-industries-modelling-prevention-and-managing-hardback-9780444543233","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
