1. 1. Safety analysis of Railway Transportation of Dangerous goods

   University essay from KTH/Transportplanering

   Author : Hengxu Liu; [2023]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : In the past decade, the demand for dangerous goods (DG) that can be used forindustrial, farming, mining, manufacturing, and pharmaceutical products has surgedwith the rapid development of industrialization. Almost 55,000 billion tonnekilometersof Dangerous Goods (DG) are transported annually by the railroad,accounting for approximately 51% of the total DG traffic volume in Europe. READ MORE

3. 2. Uncertainty Analysis : Severe Accident Scenario at a Nordic Nuclear Power Plant

   University essay from Högskolan Dalarna/Institutionen för information och teknik

   Author : Josefin Hedly; Mikaela De Young; [2023]
   Keywords : Nuclear power plant; microdata analysis; Random Forest; k-Nearest Neighbor; SVM;

   Abstract : Nuclear Power Plants (NPP) undergo fault and sensitivity analysis with scenario modelling to predict catastrophic events, specifically releases of Cesium 137 (Cs-137). The purpose of this thesis is to find which of 108 input-features from Modular Accident Analysis Program (MAAP)simulation code are important, when there is large release of Cs-137 emissions.

4. 3. Feasibility of reintroduction of European Bison (Bison bonasus) to Sweden with focus on traffic accidents

   University essay from SLU/Southern Swedish Forest Research Centre

   Author : Michael Topszewski; [2023]
   Keywords : wildlife-vehicle collision; risk prediction; reintroduction feasibility; european bison; Bison bonasus; moose; Alces alces; Human-wildlife conflict;

   Abstract : The historical occurrence of European bison (Bison bonasus) in Sweden during the early Holocene emphasizes the ecological significance for a potential reintroduction. The European bison, the largest herbivore on the European continent, is a keystone species with a significant influence on ecosystem dynamics. READ MORE

5. 4. Simulation of IB-LOCA in TRACE : A semi-blind study of numerical simulations compared to the PKL test facility

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Tillämpad kärnfysik

   Author : Matilda Tiberg; [2022]
   Keywords : Pressurized Water Reactor; Safetey analysis; LOCA; Intermediate Break; PKL; TRACE; transient; thermal hydraulics;

   Abstract : This thesis studied the performance of the thermal hydraulic software TRACE applied on an intermediate sized break (IB) happening on the cold leg in a pressurized water reactor (PWR), causing a loss-of-coolant accident (LOCA). The same accident has previously been simulated in the PKL Test Facility, which is a scaled version of a PWR and is used to simulate transients stemming from different accidents. READ MORE

6. 5. Systems Thinking in Maltreatment Investigations: Evaluating the Use of an AcciMap Approach to Assist Licensing Investigators

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Riskhantering och Samhällssäkerhet

   Author : Kelly Knutson; [2022]
   Keywords : FLMU06; Human Services Licensing; Systems Accident Analysis; Systems Thinking; Social Sciences;

   Abstract : To help protect the health, safety and well-being of vulnerable adults and children receiving care within licensed facilities and prevent future incidents of maltreatment, state human services licensing departments investigate allegations of maltreatment occurring within these facilities. Despite these efforts, maltreatment continues to occur and is increasing within licensed facilitates across the United States. READ MORE
