AbstractView references

Almost a third of Russia's regions are located in areas that can be affected by natural and industrial disasters, which can in turn trigger further damages and losses. This situation can be also described by the lack of any theoretical, methodological and scientific basis for making forecasts covering the possible destruction of assets belonging to hazardous and highly hazardous facilities and to regional infrastructure and for the recovery measures that should be taken under emergency conditions. Analysis was performed to determine the possible problems occurring at the design, construction, and restoration stages in recovery. A set of risk forecast map cards were developed, that can be applied to determine the chances of uncontrolled natural or industrial energy releases and to design the corresponding mitigation measures in the form of extreme response projects. © 2014 WIT Press.
