Study on the prevention of major accident hazard (MAH) option based on identification of accident scenarios for developing framework in land use planning (LUP) method / Mohzdah Qaeem
The major accident hazards and land use planning (LUP) is becoming a growing concern. This research wants to study identification of more hazard facilities with respect to LUP to solve the adverse consequences that threaten the nature and human life. There is an urgent need for better understandin...
