Risk and Hazard Assessment

The volumes deal with the newly emerging field of Risk and Hazard Assessment and its application to science and engineering.

These volumes address issues such as short- and long-term hazards, setting priorities in safety, fault analysis for process plants, hazard identification and safety assessment of human-robot systems, plant fault diagnoses expert systems, knowledge-based diagnostic systems, fault tree analysis, modeling of computer security systems for risk and reliability analysis, risk analysis of fatigue failure, fault evaluation of complex systems, probabilistic risk analysis, and expert systems for fault detection.

This volume will provide the reader not only with valuable conceptual and technical information but also with a better view of the field, its problems, accomplishments, and future potentials.
