Springer Navigating Safety: Necessary Compromises and Trade-Offs - Theory and Practice
Book SynopsisManaging safety in a professional environment requires constant negotiation with other competitive dimensions of risk management (finances, market and political drivers, manpower and social crisis). This is obvious, although generally not said in safety manuals. The book provides a unique vision of how to best find these compromises, starting with lessons learnt from natural risk management by individuals, then applying them to the craftsman industry, complex industrial systems (civil aviation, nuclear energy) and public services (like transportation and medicine). It offers a unique, illustrated, easy to read and scientifically based set of original concepts and pragmatic methods to revisit safety management and adopt a successful system vision. As such, and with illustrations coming from many various fields (aviation, fishing, nuclear, oil, medicine), it potentially covers a broad readership.Table of ContentsForeword1 The demand for safety and its paradoxes2 Human error at the centre of the debate on safety3 The keys to a successful systemic approach to risk management4 Human and organisational factors (HOFs): Significantly growing challenges5 Conclusion: The golden rules in relation to systemic safetyIndex

Springer Verlag, Singapore The Electrical Contact of the Pantograph-Catenary
Book SynopsisThis book covers the basic scientific theory and related application technologies of the pantograph–catenary system, including research findings on pantograph/catenary contact resistance, pantograph interface thermal effect, laws and characteristics of current-carrying friction and wear, the main research methods for pantograph arcs, the effects of arcs on pantograph systems and onboard equipment, and the materials used for pantographs and contact wires. Given its scope, it offers a valuable resource for students, scholars, and development engineers alike. The relationship between pantograph and catenary is one of the three core aspects of the safe operation of high-speed electrified railways. The pantograph system provides electric power for the high-speed train through the sliding electric contact. As the train’s operating speed increases, the pantograph system enters a state of prolonged sliding/vibration, resulting in frequent arcs, electrode erosion, and increased wear. Table of ContentsCurrent Collection Mode of High Speed Train-Pantograph Catenary System.- Electrical Contacts of Pantograph Catenary System.- Friction and Wear with Electric Current of Pantograph Catenary System,- Pantograph-catenary Arc.- Electrical contact materials of Pantograph Catenary System.- Diagnosis and detection Service Properties of Pantograph Catenary System.

Springer Verlag, Singapore Risk Modeling, Analysis and Control of
Book SynopsisThis book focuses on the risk modeling, analysis and control of multi-energy systems considering cross-sectorial failure propagation. Both models and methods have been addressed with engineering practice. This is accomplished by doing a thorough investigation into the modeling of system physics and reliabilities in both long- and short-term phases. Different models and methods to evaluate the risk of multi-energy systems considering various disturbances, e.g., component failures, load uncertainties and extreme weather, are studied in detail. Furthermore, several risk control strategies for multi-energy systems, such as long-term capacity planning and integrated demand response, are analyzed in this book, which is especially suited for readers interested in system risk management. The book can benefit researchers, engineers, and graduate students in the fields of electrical and electronic engineering, energy engineering, complex network and control engineering, etc.Table of ContentsMulti-energy systems and risk issues.- A Framework for Risk Modeling of Integrated Electricity and Gas Systems Utilizing Universal Generating Function Techniques.- Short-Term Risk Evaluation of Integrated Electricity and Gas Systems Considering Dynamics of Gas Flow.- Risk Evaluation of Integrated Electricity and Gas Systems Considering Cascading Effects.- Definitions and Risk Modelling of Two-Interdependent-Performance Multi-State System and its Application for CHP units.- Operational Risk Assessment of Integrated Electricity and Heating Systems with CHP units.- Operational Risk of Multi-Energy Customers Considering Service-Based Self-Scheduling.- Multi-phase Risk Modelling and Evaluation of Multi-energy Systems under Windstorms.- Long-term Reserve Expansion of Integrated Electricity and Gas Systems for Risk Mitigation.- Operational Risk Assessment of Integrated Electricity and Heating Systems with CHP units.
