Theme 2: Latest Advances in Hydrogen Safety R&D
|
| | Hydrogen
and hydrogen blends behavior (release, dispersion, ignition and
auto-ignition, combustion: deflagration, detonation, transitional
effects) |
| | Physical effects (thermal, overpressure, missile effects, and general human and environmental effects) |
| | Materials Safety (hydrogen effects on materials, including fuel quality) |
| | Experimentation and Testing |
| | Modeling, Simulation and Validation |
| | Sensors |
| | Mitigation (active, passive) |
|
Theme 3: Risk Management of Hydrogen Technologies
|
| | Risk-informed safety engineering |
| | Incorporation into RC&S |
| | Methods to reduce safety distances |
| | Case
studies on the safety aspect of operations: incidents and near misses
including human behavior, permitting, component and system design, |
| | Risk / safety perception |
| | Risk acceptance and harm criteria |
| | Risk assessment uncertainty and cost-benefit analysis |
| | Insurance experience and perspectives |
