Abstract:
The spate of fire outbreaks and the lack of capacity to mitigate the incidence in most urban areas reflect the violation of physical planning regulations and relevant building codes. In the past two decades, the peri-urban neighbourhoods have witnessed rapid developments as a result of the growing population in these areas. However, the level of compliance of various developments with the provisions of the existing National Fire Safety Code remains unclear. Consequently, an assessment of the adequacy of fire safety provisions vis-à-vis the effectiveness of the fire safety standards in rapidly

Abstract:
A rare type of risk associated with firefighting activities and affecting the central nervous system (CNS) is acoustic trauma. The main causes of acoustic trauma in professional firefighters include long-term exposure to noise from fire engine sirens, emergency call alarms in the fire stations (fire halls), and the operation of equipment used during rescue and firefighting operations.The study was based on an analysis of data obtained from the HR Department of the National Headquarters of the State Fire Service (NHSFS).

Since pollution of the Rhine has been greatly reduced by the construction of sewage treatment plants, the significance of accidents for water quality has become obvious. Most accidents are of only local importance, but after an incident in 1969 the water for fighting the Sandoz warehouse fire caused the second long distance death of fish in the river in 1986. Many waterworks are effectively protected from pollution surges by a bank filtration for the water.

Background: Fire and explosion in process industries can have catastrophic consequences. The frequency of these accidents has led safety experts to underscore the importance of conducting thorough risk analysis studies to implement effective control measures. Materials and Methods: A tank gas leak was initially selected as a scenario for probable explosion risk assessment. The bowtie technique was utilized to analyze the potential causes and consequences of the selected incident. A fuzzy logic approach was used to quantify the probability of essential events, and the Bayesian network (BN) was

Abstract:
Maritime activities pose significant safety risks, particularly with the growing presence of nuclear-powered vessels (NPVs) alongside traditional fossil-powered vessels (FPVs). This study employs a probabilistic risk assessment (PRA) approach to evaluate and compare accident hazards involving NPVs and FPVs. By analyzing historical data from 1960 to 2024, this study identifies risk patterns, accident frequency (probability), and severity levels. The methodology focuses on incidents such as marine incidents, marine casualties, and very serious cases with sub-causes. Key findings reveal that Russ

The risk of fire in urban forests is high due to housing and living infrastructure adjacent to the forest, resulting in large human and property damage and high frequency of occurrence. It is very important to identify the forest fire environment and potential risk factors for each city in order to manage the forest fire risk in the cities adjacent to the forest. In this study, urban forest fire management measures were suggested by conducting a survey on the causes of forest fires and the entire adjacent forests in Nowon-gu, which has the most urban-forest adjacent areas in terms of administr

It is of high priority for the government and railroad companies to enhance the railroad hazmat transportation safety since the train accidents can cause severe railroad hazmat release incidents.
