Release Risk and Optimization of Railroad Tank Car Safety Design
The performance metric for tank cars and other hazardous materials vehicles involved in accidents has generally been conditional probability of release given involvement in an accident. This metric considers the probability of a release event occurring but does not take into account the quantity of product lost in a release incident. In this paper, a new metric termed “release risk” is introduc...
متن کاملStatic and modal analysis of parabolic-boundary functionalized Carbon nanotube-reinforced composite plates using FEM
This paper investigates the effect of different methods of carbon nanotubes distribution in a thin matrix on static and dynamic behavior of the nanocomposite. Five different symmetric patterns of distribution are considered, including four parabolic patterns and a linear one. For each pattern, the effective mechanical properties of the resultant nanocomposite are calculated using the rule of mi...

متن کاملEnvironmental Risk Analysis of Chemicals Transported in Railroad Tank Cars
This study assesses the risk to soil and groundwater in the event of a spill of hazardous materials transported in railroad tank cars. Tank cars are designed to be resistant to damage in accidents to reduce the probability of a spill. For safety and economic reasons, the damage-resistant design of tank cars is commensurate with the degree of hazard posed by the product they are intended to tran...
متن کاملOptimizing Railroad Tank Car Safety Design to Reduce Dangerous Goods Transportation Risk
This paper describes an optimization model developed to determine the most efficient way to enhance the safety design of tank cars used to transport toxic inhalation hazard (TIH) materials in North America and a quantitative risk analysis conducted to assess the risk and potential benefit of implementing enhanced safety-design tank cars. The conditional probability of release and the car's weig...
