Cascading failure has a great negative impact on the operation of multilevel systems. Although the frequency of this kind of failure is lower than that of general failure, it may cause outage and considerable human and economic losses. In this paper,…
This paper takes the safety in emergency processes as the starting point, from the perspective of scenario deduction, to study the consequences of fire accidents for oil-gas storage and transportation. Through the statistical analysis of actual…

Fire is one of the most costly accidents in process plants due to the inflicted damage and the required firefighting resources. If the firefighting resources are sufficient, firefighting will include the suppression and cooling of all the burning…
Due to massive flammable chemical materials and dense layout, domino accident chain always occurs in major accidents of atmospheric storage tank farm. In this paper, 136 domino effect accidents of atmospheric tanks are analyzed to achieve relative…
Fires are one of the most costly types of accidents in chemical and process plants both due to the damage they inflict and the firefighting resources needed to handle them. When the number of firefighters and firefighting equipment is sufficient, an…
Rail transport of hazardous material (RTHM) plays a vital role in the supply chain of raw materials and products. However, RTHM can pose severe risks due to the large quantities of flammable and explosive chemicals transported over rail tracks…
