Sun, H. (author), Wang, Haiqing (author), Yang, M. (author), Reniers, G.L.L.M.E. (author)Chemical process systems (CPSs) involve complex dynamic processes. Besides, the emergent and uncertain hazards and disruptions cannot be identified entirely and prevented by conventional methods. In those situations, resilience for CPSs plays an essential role in absorbing, adapting to disruptions, and restoring from damages. Systemic modeling...journal article 2022

Chen, C. (author), Reniers, G.L.L.M.E. (author), Yang, M. (author)Domino effects may be induced by both intentional and unintentional threats. To deal with possible intentional and unintentional domino effects, this chapter develops an integrated safety and security management framework. First, safety and security management principles are introduced to show the similarities and differences between safety...book chapter 2022

Chen, C. (author), Reniers, G.L.L.M.E. (author), Yang, M. (author)In light of possible severe consequences of unintentional and intentional domino effects, an integrated domino effect management framework was introduced in Chap. 5 to prevent and mitigate domino effect risk. In this chapter, an economic approach based on safety economics is developed to obtain the optimal protection strategy. First, we...book chapter 2022

Chen, C. (author), Reniers, G.L.L.M.E. (author), Yang, M. (author)In a coupled domino effect, hazardous scenarios such as toxic release, VCE, and fire can simultaneously or sequentially occur. Chapters 2 and 3 only consider domino effects that are caused by fire or VCE. Therefore, this study develops a dynamic method called “Dynamic Graph Monte Carlo” (DGMC) to model the evolution of coupled domino effects and...book chapter 2022

Chen, C. (author), Reniers, G.L.L.M.E. (author), Yang, M. (author)Vapor cloud explosion (VCE) accidents such as the Jaipur explosion in 2005 manifest that VCEs may lead to unpredicted overpressures, resulting in catastrophic domino effects. Many attempts have been made to assess VCEs and the subsequent domino effects in the process and chemical industry, whereas little attention has been paid to the spatial...book chapter 2022

Chen, C. (author), Reniers, G.L.L.M.E. (author), Yang, M. (author)An accident within a chemical plant may trigger escalation effects, leading to a catastrophic degradation of operating performance. Due to possible severe consequences of domino effects, safety and security measures are needed to prevent and mitigate domino effects in chemical industrial areas. However, safety and security measures may be...book chapter 2022

Lindhout, P (author), Teunissen, Truus (author), Reniers, G.L.L.M.E. (author)The positive reception of Wang and Burris’ photovoice method, published in 1997, has led to a proliferation of ways in which professionals deploy photovoice in a widening range of application fields, e.g., public health, social development and phenomenological research of human expe-riences. A scoping review method is used to obtain an overview...journal article 2021

Predicting major hazard accidents by monitoring their barrier systems: A validation in retrospectiveSchmitz, P.J.H. (author), Reniers, G.L.L.M.E. (author), Swuste, P.H.J.J. (author)OCI Nitrogen, one of Europe's largest fertilizer producers, is investigating the extent to which it is possible to take targeted measures at an early stage and stop the development of major hazard accident processes. An innovative model has been developed and recently explained and elaborated in a number of publications. This current paper...journal article 2021

(author)Kenmerkend voor bedrijven die in een cluster gelegen zijn, zijn de onderlinge risico’s waarbij de risico’s van één bedrijf aanleiding kunnen geven tot nieuwe risico’s bij een aangrenzend of een nabijgelegen bedrijf. Daarbij gaat het om de mogelijkheid op domino-effecten, keteneffecten, of nadelige effecten (letsel/schade). Voor (petro)chemische...report 2021

Lindhout, P. (author), Reniers, G.L.L.M.E. (author)Some organisations, and some individual humans, violate moral and ethical rules, whether or not they are written down in laws or codes of conduct. Corporate transgressions, as this behaviour is called, occur because of the actions of those in charge, usually bright and dedicated people. Immoral and unethical conduct can adversely affect the...journal article 2021

Li, Jie (author), Goerlandt, Floris (author), van Nunen, K.L.L. (author), Reniers, G.L.L.M.E. (author)Safety and security are often considered in complimentary or opposing terms. Discussions on their conceptual meaning have been put forward, and calls for an increased integration of these domains have been made. Nevertheless, there is currently no high-level empirical comparison of the development and contents of these research domains. In this...journal article 2021
