Risk Assessment for Hazardous Materials Transportation
The assessment of hazardous materials (HazMats) transport risk assumes a fundamental importance, especially in urban areas, in order to identify possible alternative routes and choose among these the route of minimum risk.It is necessary to appropriately integrate risk analysis with planning and transport management to prevent a potential danger being transformed into a real event.In the presen...
متن کاملDesigning emergency response networks for hazardous materials transportation
Undesirable consequences of dangerous goods incidents can be mitigated by quick arrival of specialized response teams at the accident site. We present a novel methodology to determine the optimal design of a specialized team network so as to maximize its ability to respond to such incidents in a region. We show that this problem can be represented via a maximal arc-covering model.We discuss two...
متن کاملSpectral Risk Measure Minimization in Hazardous Materials Transportation
Due to catastrophic consequences of accidents by hazardous materials (hazmat) transportation, a risk-averse approach for routing is appropriate for risk mitigation. In this paper, we consider spectral risk measures, which are coherent and more general than existing approaches such as conditional value-at-risk. In spectral risk measures, one can define the spectrum function precisely to reflect ...
متن کاملA multimodal location and routing model for hazardous materials transportation.
The recent US Commodity Flow Survey data suggest that transporting hazardous materials (HAZMAT) often involves multiple modes, especially for long-distance transportation. However, not much research has been conducted on HAZMAT location and routing on a multimodal transportation network. Most existing HAZMAT location and routing studies focus exclusively on single mode (either highways or railw...
متن کاملA Multi-interface WSNs Based Hazardous Materials Transportation Monitoring System
The increased number of hazardous materials transportation accidents has caused a series of environmental and health problems across the world. In this paper, a hazardous materials transportation monitoring system (HMTM) is designed, implemented, and tested using multi-interface Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). In order to meet various state tanker transportation information collection, we desi...
