Risk Engineering: Bridging Risk Analysis with Stakeholders Values: 6 (Topics in Safety, Risk, Reliability and Quality, 6) - Hardcover
Synopsis
Industrial development is essential to improvement of the standard of living in all countries. People's health and the environment can be affected, directly or indirectly by routine waste discharges or by accidents. A series of recent major industrial accidents and the effect of pollution highlighted, once again, the need for better management of routine and accidental risks. Moreover, the existence of natural hazards complicate even more the situation in any given region. In the past effort to cope with these risks, if made at all, have been largely on a plant by plant basis; some plants are well equipped to manage environmental and health hazards, while others are not. Managing the hazards of modern technological systems has become a key activity in highly industrialised countries. Decision makers are often confronted with complex issues concerning economic and social development, industrialisation and associated infrastructure needs, population and land use planning. Such issues have to be addressed in such a way that ensures that public health will not be disrupted or substantially degraded. Due to the increasing complexity of technological systems and the higher geographical density of punctual hazard sources, new methodologies and a novel approach to these problems are challenging risk managers and regional planers. Risks from these new complex technological systems are inherently different form those addressed by the risk managers for decades ago.

Synopsis
This volume attempts, for the first time, to link the science of risk analysis with the currently on-going movement on the use of stakeholders' processes. It is intended to assess the current practice of risk engineering, and to address the potential interactions with stakeholders' processes. New type models for risk screening and prioritisation at plant and regional levels are presented using fuzzy sets. The advent of integrated risk assessment Decision Support Systems in connection with stakeholders' processes, and their interactions, are put into a practice perspective for today's developments in risk engineering. It is suitable for postgraduate students, practitioners in consulting engineering, and national regulatory bodies interested in applying science of risk analysis to interactions with stakeholders.
