A domino effect is a low frequency high consequence chain of accidents where a primary
accident (usually fire and explosion) in a unit triggers secondary accidents in adjacent units …

Recent catastrophic accidents in China and the USA urge and justify a thorough study on
current & future research trends in the development of modeling methods and protection …

A systematic procedure for the quantitative assessment of the risk caused by domino effect
was developed. Escalation vectors, defined as the physical effects responsible of possible …

Domino effect is responsible of several catastrophic accidents that took place in the
chemical and process industry. Although the destructive potential of these accidental …

Chemical industrial parks, being critical infrastructures, are susceptible to domino effects
triggered by intentional attacks. Previous research on security risk management has mainly …

Among the most devastating of accidents likely in chemical process industry is the boiling
