Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We consider the problem of finding shortest and safest paths in the presence of toxic gas dispersions that move dynamically with the changing wind speed and direction. First, to model this dynamic aspect of the gas plumes we developed the Weather Retriever software, that fetches the weather details of a particular location from the internet and works as the Station for Atmospheric Measurements (SAM) for a plume modeling software called ALOHA. Then we explored several options for displaying this dynamic plume on a geographic map. We proposed a solution that unifies several technologies and achieves the goal. Finally, we implemented it by extending an existing GIS application called ArcMap to display the dynamic plumes and find the emergency paths utilizing the geoprocessing tools and built-in Network Analyst.
Download or read book Emergency Response Guidebook written by U.S. Department of Transportation and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2013-06-03 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Does the identification number 60 indicate a toxic substance or a flammable solid, in the molten state at an elevated temperature? Does the identification number 1035 indicate ethane or butane? What is the difference between natural gas transmission pipelines and natural gas distribution pipelines? If you came upon an overturned truck on the highway that was leaking, would you be able to identify if it was hazardous and know what steps to take? Questions like these and more are answered in the Emergency Response Guidebook. Learn how to identify symbols for and vehicles carrying toxic, flammable, explosive, radioactive, or otherwise harmful substances and how to respond once an incident involving those substances has been identified. Always be prepared in situations that are unfamiliar and dangerous and know how to rectify them. Keeping this guide around at all times will ensure that, if you were to come upon a transportation situation involving hazardous substances or dangerous goods, you will be able to help keep others and yourself out of danger. With color-coded pages for quick and easy reference, this is the official manual used by first responders in the United States and Canada for transportation incidents involving dangerous goods or hazardous materials.

This book was released on 2010-09-10 with total page 807 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the late 1970s and early 1980s, our nation began to grapple with the legacy of past disposal practices for toxic chemicals. With the passage in 1980 of the Comprehensive Envir- mental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA), commonly known as Sup- fund, it became the law of the land to remediate these sites. The U. S. Department of Defense (DoD), the nation’s largest industrial organization, also recognized that it too had a legacy of contaminated sites. Historic operations at Army, Navy, Air Force, and Marine Corps facilities, ranges, manufacturing sites, shipyards, and depots had resulted in widespread contamination of soil, groundwater, and sediment. While Superfund began in 1980 to focus on remediation of heavily contaminated sites largely abandoned or neglected by the private sector, the DoD had already initiated its Installation Restoration Program in the mid-1970s. In 1984, the DoD began the Defense Environmental Restoration Program (DERP) for contaminated site assessment and remediation. Two years later, the U. S. Congress codified the DERP and directed the Secretary of Defense to carry out a concurrent program of research, development, and demonstration of innovative remediation technologies. As chronicled in the 1994 National Research Council report, “Ranking Hazardous-Waste Sites for Remedial Action,” our early estimates on the cost and suitability of existing techn- ogies for cleaning up contaminated sites were wildly optimistic. Original estimates, in 1980, projected an average Superfund cleanup cost of a mere $3.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Meant to aid State & local emergency managers in their efforts to develop & maintain a viable all-hazard emergency operations plan. This guide clarifies the preparedness, response, & short-term recovery planning elements that warrant inclusion in emergency operations plans. It offers the best judgment & recommendations on how to deal with the entire planning process -- from forming a planning team to writing the plan. Specific topics of discussion include: preliminary considerations, the planning process, emergency operations plan format, basic plan content, functional annex content, hazard-unique planning, & linking Federal & State operations.
Download or read book Plume Contamination Effects Prediction The CONTAM Computer Program Program User s Manual written by R. J. Hoffman and published by . This book was released on 1971 with total page 522 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The effect of rocket exhaust plume impingement on sensitive vehicle surfaces is an area of continuing concern in the design of spacecraft, missiles, and reentry vehicle systems. The objective of the study was to develop a single computer code capable of predicting the production, transport, and deposition of engine and plume contaminants, and the change in absorptivity, emissivity, reflectivity, and transmissivity of a functional spacecraft surface, such as thermal control coatings and optical view ports and lenses, resulting from plume contaminant deposition or mechanical abrasion (sand blasting). Analytical models and computer subprograms have been developed and integrated to form the CONTAM computer program. A sample case illustrating the CONTAM program's capability to predict contaminant production and transport is presented. (Author).

Download or read book PLUME EFFECTS DATA STUDY PROGRAM written by Charles E. Upper and published by . This book was released on 1965 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report has two major objectives: To prepare charts predicting full scale heating patterns from the impingement of typical storable propellant rocket plumes on adjacent spacecraft surfaces, and to study the subscale testing techniques and instrumentation covering areas such as subscale model plume temperature and profile, thermal modeling of spacecraft surfaces, instrumentation for surface contamination and pressure effects testing. Results of the study showed that subscale model plume stagnation temperatures close to full scale unit values are achievable. Unavailability of a computer program to predict the profile from a microthrust engine with a converging approach sonic orifice left this area of consideration open. Parametric groupings for thermal modeling of a spacecraft skin were established, permitting prediction of full scale transient effects from subscale test data. Design concepts were established for simple 'plug-in' modules for the measurement of surface contamination effects on several types of functional spacecraft surfaces. Consideration of pressure loading instrumentation revealed no unusual problem for static pressure measurements, but did reveal a potential response and miniaturization requirement for acoustic loadings measurements.
