Sentence examples for maximum individual risk from inspiring English sources

This is near the median of the maximum individual risk increase across airports.

Of note, the maximum individual risk occurs at the same receptor for all three pollutants at all airports.

This emphasizes that pollutant characteristics will have a smaller effect on maximum individual risk than on population risk.

Figure S2 (see Additional file 3) demonstrates the generally weak association between the population risk increase and maximum individual risk increase per unit increase in benzene emissions.

As a comparison, the one metric ton/year increase in benzene emissions would result in a maximum individual risk increase of 2.5 × 10-7, given a DMIRET of 4 metric tons/year (corresponding to a maximum individual risk of 10-6).

Our findings indicate that site characteristics can be used to accurately predict maximum individual risk and total population risk at a given level of emissions, but that optimizing on one endpoint will be non-optimal for the other.

We can estimate the population cancer risk at the DMIRET for each airport, which addresses the question of whether having the identical maximum individual cancer risk across airports would lead to similar population risks.

This concentration is then combined with the corresponding cancer potency factor to estimate the increase in maximum individual cancer risk.

This could allow a decision maker to determine, for example, the emission rate that would not exceed a 10-6 maxindividualidual cancer risk with 95% confidence.

In addition, in situations where potency ranges are reported (as for benzene), it could be determined whether the emissions from an airport would exceed a 10-6 maxindividualidual cancer risk for any of the values within that range.

Starting from the societal risk (FN) criteria (risk neutral) used in the UK and the Dutch criteria (risk averse), the consistent set of criteria is developed based on the maximum average individual risk and the number of people exposed (in a building) and compared against three major structural reliability codes.
