These analyses are expected to provide useful evidences and references for scaling analysis, conducting experiments in small-scale test facilities, designing new safety systems and improving the accident management system.
Also considered herein are a risk-informed safety analysis approach suggested by Westinghouse as a means to improve the conventional accident analysis, together with the Technology Neutral Framework recently developed by the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission as a high-level regulatory infrastructure for safety evaluation of any type of reactor design.
This paper demonstrates the application of four strategies to improve the reliability of accident and incident classification systems.
Novel fuel technologies, named accident tolerant fuels (ATF), seek to improve the endurance of severe accident conditions in LWRs by eliminating or at least mitigating such detrimental steam-cladding interaction.
This paper, therefore, shows how a number of relatively simple graphical notations can be used to improve the next generation of accident reports.
That is why we are determined to improve the clear-up of accidents so we can get our motorways re-opened as quickly as possible.
This information will help drivers to make smarter decisions in timely manner to prevent accidents, improve the efficiency of the selected route, and provide a safer distance among other vehicles.
In particular, the use of vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) is being considered as the base candidate technology for these cooperative systems that are expected to significantly reduce the number of traffic accidents, improve the efficiency and comfort of road transport, and also enhance the passengers' communications experience.
In this commentary, we will assess the established health consequences of the accident; identify some of the unanswered health issues; assess whether there are effects yet to be realized; evaluate the international response; and consider how to improve the response to future accidents.
There are many uncertain factors in traffic accidents, it is necessary to study the influence of these uncertain factors to improve the accuracy and confidence of accident reconstruction results.
