Abstract

The book analyzes the different major accidents which can occur in process plants and during the transportation of hazardous materials. The main features of fires, explosions and toxic releases are discussed, and a set of mathematical models allowing the prediction of their effects and consequences are explained. With a practical approach, the models are applied to simple illustrative examples, as well as to more complex real cases. The use of these calculations in the frame of Quantitative Risk Analysis is also treated.Evaluation of the effects of major accidents in industrial install

Abstract

Cet ouvrage fait suite à La Conduite des systèmes à risques publié par l'auteur en 1996 (réédition 2001). Le premier livre mettait l'accent sur la sécurité au niveau des individus, celui-ci met l'accent sur la gouvernance de la sécurité dans les industries et services. La sécurité des systèmes complexes n'a pas perdu son actualité, bien au contraire ; citons la vingtaine de catastrophes aériennes annuelles, les presque aussi fréquentes catastrophes de la chimie, le spectre des accidents nucléaires, sans oublier les problèmes atteignant les services publics en médecine ou dans la finance.La lis

Abstract

This succinct but absorbing book covers the main way stations on James Reason's 40-year journey in pursuit of the nature and varieties of human error. He presents an engrossing and very personal perspective, offering the reader exceptional insights, wisdom and wit as only James Reason can. A Life in Error charts the development of his seminal and hugely influential work from its original focus into individual cognitive psychology through the broadening of scope to embrace social, organizational and systemic issues.

Abstract

In Nederland werd door de Rijkswet van 2 december 2004 de Onderzoeksraad voor Veiligheid opgericht. Deze onafhankelijke raad stelt onderzoeken in naar rampen, ongevallen en incidenten en formuleert op basis daarvan adviezen aan de betrokken actoren om de veiligheid te versterken. De gasexplosie in Gellingen, de treinramp in Buizingen en de trein- en giframp in Wetteren zijn slechts enkele voorbeelden van ernstige voorvallen die zich de afgelopen jaren in België hebben voorgedaan. Gedurende de periode 2010-2011 heeft het Leuvens Instituut voor Criminologie, in opdracht van de Algemene Directie Veiligheid en Preventie (FOD Binnenlandse Zaken) en in samenwerking met het Crisiscentrum, onderzocht of de beleidsmatige reactie ten aanzien van zulke voorvallen adequaat is en of de oprichting van een onafhankelijk onderzoeksorgaan ook zinvol zou zijn in de Belgische context. Dit boek vormt de volgende stap in de reflectie over de mogelijke oprichting van een dergelijk onderzoeksorgaan in België.

Abstract

The late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century US economy maimed and killed employees at an astronomically high rate, while the legal system left the injured and their loved ones with little recourse. In the 1910s, US states enacted workers' compensation laws, which required employers to pay a portion of the financial costs of workplace injuries. Nate Holdren uses a range of archival materials, interdisciplinary theoretical perspectives, and compelling narration to criticize the shortcomings of these laws. While compensation laws were a limited improvement for employees in economic terms, Holdren argues that these laws created new forms of inequality, causing people with disabilities to lose their jobs, while also resulting in new forms of inhumanity. Ultimately, this study raises questions about law and class and about when and whether our economy and our legal system produce justice or injustice.
