Engineering in Scenarios & Risk

What could go wrong, how likely, how bad, and why the risk is tolerable

How major accident scenarios are identified and analysed, including harm to the environment and effects on neighbouring sites, and the basis on which risk is judged as low as reasonably practicable. A change of method or criterion can change every conclusion that rests on it.
