Computerized Assessment of Integrated Site Risk Specific to Industrial Infrastructures of Explosives, Taking Acts of Maliciousness Into Consideration

Abstract

Abstract The general safety rules applicable to high-risk industrial sites are based on both the 4 principles of working safely with explosive substances (knowing the risks, separating the risks, limiting the risks and overlapping safety devices), as well as the specific characteristics of the general and particular reports of explosion safety, together with the technical aspects related to the possible causes of explosion, the effects of explosion and safety distances, the protection against accidental triggering of the explosion, as well as the security in the field of explosive powders and pyrotechnic systems highlighting the limits related to the principle of pyrotechnic safety (knowledge, prevention and limitation of pyrotechnic risk). The scientific article offers an original perspective of solving the problem in the field of explosion risk generated when explosive materials are involved, taking into account acts of ill-will, using the working facilities of some dedicated software for its analysis and evaluation, and the results obtained are expressed in a technical manner integrated within the specialized IT application TERRORISK.EXE 01.
