Analysis of aerosol distribution inside the object “shelter”

AIP Conference Proceedings, 2000
Results of the aerosol sampling inside the Object Shelter are considered in the work. The results show a consistent and significant contribution of the submicron fraction to the total aerosol activity. Different methods of interpretation of impactor data series are compared in order to indicate and detect in most effective way the submicron fraction as

Individual monitoring of internal exposure at the shelter object

Radiation Protection Dosimetry, 2010
The paper describes how the programme of individual monitoring (IM) of internal exposure (IE) at Shelter object (SO) was designed and what results were obtained in the framework of the programme for 5 y. The main dose-forming factors of IE at SO are intakes of radionuclides of transuranium elements, (90)Sr and (137)Cs.

Evacuation shelter and route selection based on multi-objective optimization approach

Proceedings of the 1st ACM SIGSPATIAL International Workshop on the Use of GIS in Emergency Management, 2015
Evacuation shelter and route selection are indispensable parts of emergency planning. An efficient plan can effectively evacuate people from a dangerous place to a safer location. Meanwhile, it is crucial to improve risk management. This article presents a multi-objective optimization algorithm based on social media and GIS to optimize shelter usage ...

ANALYSIS OF AEROSOL DISTRIBUTION INSIDE THE OBJECT “SHELTER” AT THE CHORNOBYL NUCLEAR REACTOR SITE

Health Physics, 2001
Results of the aerosol sampling inside the Object Shelter at the Chornobyl nuclear reactor site are considered in the work. The results show a consistent and significant contribution of submicron fraction to the total aerosol activity. Different methods of interpretation of impactor data series are compared in order to indicate and detect in the most ...
