The development and demonstration of integrated models for the evaluation of severe accident management strategies--SAMEM

摘要

this study is concerned with the further development of integrated models for the assessment of existing and potential sever accident management (SAM) measures. This paper provides a brief summary of these models, based on Probabilistic Safety Assessment (PSA) methods and the Risk Oriented Accident Analysis Methodology (ROAAM) approach, and their application to a number of case studies spanning both preventive and mitigative accident management regimes. In the course of this study it became evident that the starting point to guide the selection of methodology and any further improvement is the intended application.
