Systems, Decision and Control in Energy IV

Abstract

The chapter consider regulatory documents defining basic requirements for transportation of dangerous goods by road in Ukraine and general requirements for their safety, regulating the relationship, rights and responsibilities of participants in the transport of dangerous goods. Features of specialized vehicles for transportation of dangerous goods are described, their classification and illustration are given. Number of methods used to assess the situation in the case of accidents related to the spillage (release) of hazardous chemicals from technological units in road transport are considered. Their shortcomings are identified. It is established that these methods are not effective tools to support decision-making to prevent and quickly eliminate consequences of such emergencies. Therefore important scientific problem is to develop new mathematical and software tools that will be better than existing counterparts in all key indicators.
