HAZMAT Transportation and Security: Survey and Directions for Future Research
The U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) Office of Hazardous Materials Safety estimates that an average of over 800,000 shipments of hazardous materials (HAZMAT) are made each day in the United States [27]. The DOT also reports that approximately 1.5 billion tons of hazardous materials are shipped each year [26]. The majority of the hazardous material shipped is classified as flammable liqui...
متن کاملRisk Assessment for Hazardous Materials Transportation
The assessment of hazardous materials (HazMats) transport risk assumes a fundamental importance, especially in urban areas, in order to identify possible alternative routes and choose among these the route of minimum risk.It is necessary to appropriately integrate risk analysis with planning and transport management to prevent a potential danger being transformed into a real event.In the presen...
متن کاملA ROUTING METHODOLOGY FOR HAZARDOUS MATERIALS TRANSPORTATION TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ROAD NETWORK
Abstract: The shipments of hazardous materials (HAZMATs) induce various risks to the road network. Today, one of the major considerations of transportation system managers is HAZMATs shipments, due to the increasing demand of these goods (because it is more used in industry, agriculture, medicine, etc.), and the rising number of incidents that are associated to hazardous materials. This paper ...
متن کاملComparison between Combined and Separate Approaches for Solving a Location-Routing Problem in Hazardous Materials Transportation
In the case of hazardous materials management, selected routes for carrying hazardous materials (i.e., hazmat) have significant effects on locating hazmat distribution centers. Since, risk and cost are usually considered as two main attributes to determine the best routes, optimized locations are sequentially outlined depending on selected routes. In the present paper, t...
متن کاملA thermal stress treadmill walk for clinic evaluation of candidates for hazardous materials (HazMat) duty.
UNLABELLED U.S. guidance for examining hazmat workers recommends stress testing be considered when heat stress is expected. However, the most common stress test-Bruce protocol treadmill electrocardiography (BPTE) wearing gym clothes-creates little thermal stress. OBJECTIVE Evaluate a novel thermal stress treadmill walk (TSTW). METHODS Body temperatures and heart rates during BPTE in 93 curr...
