Under the influences of the chimney effect and longitudinal ventilation, the risks of
continuous spill fires in inclined tunnels are catastrophic with great complexity and …

Many large mathematical models, not only models arising and used in environmental
studies, are described by systems of partial differential equations. The discretization of the …

Abstract A flexible 2D/3D oil spill modeling system addressing the distinct nature of the
surface and water column fluids, major oil weathering and improved retention/reposition …

The Brazilian Amazon is part of one of the largest river systems in the world, in which the
transport of cargo and passengers is commonplace. However, several accidents still occur …

A new oil risk management system is proposed herein. Risk is computed in a quantitative
way, combining a detailed hazard maps generated with a process-based oil spill model over …

Great threats and damages to natural ecosystem and marine environment will be caused
once oil and gas leakage occurs. It is crucial to develop a quick response strategy, including …

Abstract An Oil Spill Modeling Tool (OSMT) has been developed in this study to predict the
transport and fate of oil spills resulting from surface releases. Particularly, the Kullback …

Tremendous economic loss and environmental damages are caused by oil-spilling
accidents in sea. Accurate prediction of the underwater spreading and surface drifting of oil …

Offshore oil production and transportation of oil by pipelines and tankers are associated with
the risks of an oil spill, and accidents of various scales, from emissions of several liters to …

In oil spill–fire accidents, the spread of burning fuel from petroleum product containers may
increase accident losses and trigger further accidents. Studying the spreading process of …
