Safety and Security Engineering

Nowadays, every process needs a safety analysis that must be, from the beginning, integrated in any design, construction or managerial process, to ensure the desired safety and security standards and to calculate the costs. Safety and Security Engineering, due to its special nature, represents an interdisciplinary area of research and applications that brings other, in a systematic view, many disciplines of engineering, from the traditional to the most advanced and novel. This book contains most of the papers presented at the 1st International Conference on Safety and Security Engineering (SAFE 2005). The meeting provided a forum for the presentation and discussion of the most recent developments in the theoretical and practical aspects of Safety and Security Engineering. The contributions are divided under the following headings: Modeling and theoretical studies; risk analysis, assessment and management; ARAMIS: an integrated risk assessment methodology; novel techniques, systems and devices; information and communication technologies; integrated technological systems; fire prevention and protection; infrastructure protection; transportation problems; population protection; environmental protection; emergency and disaster prevention, control, management and recovery; terrorism prevention and protection; case studies; forensic studies; and industrial environment.
