Product Description
Publication of this book completes a project begun with the first volume, Reactor Physics and Control.

These books are the product of Project SIFTOR (Safety Information for the Technology of Reactors), a coordinated effort sponsored by the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission to evaluate critically, organize, and generalize the growing body of information concerned with safety problems in reactor design and operation. Many leading authorities have contributed to this project, and their studies range in treatment from normal, day-to-day operation to catastrophic accidents. The history of specific accidents is reviewed, as is that of destructive tests ("intentional accidents"). The results of numerous theoretical and experimental studies of reactor excursions ("run-aways") are synthesized by mathematical models. The problems of containing or confining the energy and radioactive debris that would be released by a serious accident at a reactor installation are considered in detail, as are the safety problems associated with non-nuclear phases of reactor design: mechanical components, chemical reactions, fluid flow, and heat transfer.

Contents: "Materials and Metallurgy," Thomas O. Ziebold; "Fuel Elements," D. Gurinsky and S. Isserow; "Mechanical Design of Components for Reactor Systems," N. J. Palladino; "Fluid Flow," S. Levy; "Heat Transfer," W. Rohsenow and H. Fenech; "Chemical Reactions," L. Baker; "Fission Product Release," G. W. Parker and C. J. Barton; "Fission Product Behavior and Retention in Containment Systems," L. Silverman; "Radioactive Waste Management," W. Rodger and S. McLain; "The Concepts of Reactor Containment," T. J. Thompson; and "Containment and Confinement Structures," T. J. Thompson. ... Read more

Product Description

Lasers perform many unique functions in a plethora of applications, but there are many inherent risks with this continually burgeoning technology. Laser Safety: Tools and Training presents simple, effective ways for users in a variety of facilities to evaluate the hazards of any laser procedure and ensure they are following documented laser safety standards.

Designed for use as either a stand-alone volume or a supplement to Laser Safety Management, this text includes fundamental laser and laser safety information and critical laser use information rarely found in a single source. The first laser guide written by a working Laser Safety Officer (LSO), its depth and breadth make it appropriate for both the seasoned professional and the novice. It presents case studies of real accidents, preventive measures that could have been taken to avoid such accidents, and templates for documenting potential laser risks and attendant safety measures.

Reflecting the exponential use of laser technology over the last several years, this text considers the growing use of petawatt laser installations and nanotechnology applications and addresses current laser projects such as the National Ignition Facility (NIF) and Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS). Several chapters explore the components of laser work and laser safety that deal with optics, the optical table, the power meter, and user training.

Ken Barat is the LSO for the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, the first Department of Energy national lab. He also served as the LSO for the National Ignition Facility Directorate at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory and is a member of the Laser Safety Forum in the United Kingdom. Internationally recognized, he has collected the wisdom of the top minds in the laser field to present a practical, straightforward handbook that helps those who work with lasers to harness their potential without endangering themselves or the people around them.

Editorial Review

Product Description

Safety is one of the most important issues today. Recent international standards such as ISO and IEC have consistently advocated goal-based procedures of designing systems for better safety. The procedure assumes safety goals are explicitly established by international organizations, individual nations, particular industries or private companies. Satisfying Safety Goals by Modern Reliability Engineering is a methodological approach to the goal-based safety design procedure that will soon be an international requirement.

Satisfying Safety Goals by Modern Reliability Engineering primarily focuses on the quantitative aspects of international standards. The methodologies presented are illustrated through the use of case studies. The book also:

  • presents accident statistics and safety goals;
  • describes abnormal event enumeration for the target system;
  • develops risk reduction mechanisms;
  • discusses probabilistic risk assessment (PRA) models typified by event trees coupled with fault trees;
  • presents conventional materials for basic event quantification;
  • describes how to calculate safety criteria from the PRA models, given basic event data;
  • evaluates uncertainties of point estimates of safety criteria; and
  • considers how external event quantification can expand the scope of PRA.

Satisfying Safety Goals by Modern Reliability Engineering will be a good reference for senior undergraduates, postgraduates and researchers in the fields of reliability engineering and safety engineering and risk assessment. It will also be of interest to reliability engineers, practitioners in industry and regulatory authorities.

Product Description

The high number of fatal accidents in the mining industry makes mine safety an important issue throughout the world. The risks to life are widespread, ranging from dust explosions and the collapse of mine stopes to flooding and general mechanical errors. Mine Safety combines detailed information on safety in mining with methods and mathematics that can be used to preserve human life.

By compiling various recent research results and data into one volume, Mine Safety eliminates the need to consult many diverse sources in order to obtain vital information. It enables readers to delve deeper into a particular area, providing the source of most of the material presented in references at the end of each chapter.

Chapters cover a broad range of topics, including:

• human factors and error in mine safety;

• mining equipment safety;

• safety in offshore industry; and

• programmable electronic mining system safety.

They are written in such a manner that the reader requires no previous knowledge to understand their contents. Examples and solutions are given at appropriate places, and there are numerous problems to test the reader’s comprehension.

Product Description
Safety at Work is widely accepted as the authoritative guide to safety and health in the workplace and covers all aspects of safety management.

The sixth edition has been revised to cover recent changes to UK practice and standards in health, safety, employment and environmental legislation. It also incorporates EU directives and references to harmonised and international standards.

Reflecting the importance of the roles of directors and managers in health and safety, new chapters cover the management of risk, emphasising the need for a sound organisational structure to achieve effective risk management. Developments in the behavioural approach to risk management and current thinking on the development of an international standard on safety management are also covered.

Quality of the environment is rapidly becoming part of the safety manager's responsibilities both in the workplace and in the context of global pollution. A completely new part consisting of five chapters has been added dealing solely with environmental issues (including ISO 14001).

The increasingly important role of ergonomics in health and safety is reflected in a new chapter on Applied Ergonomics, dealing with the subject pragmatically, that will allow the manager and practitioner to design process and operations that are within the limits of the human body. The effects of stress, an emerging concern in health and safety, are covered in various chapters.
