Experimental Investigation of Characteristics of Passive Safety Elements
Advanced Materials Research, 2013Development of passive safety elements is a key component in the design and manufacture of railway vehicles. Proper functioning of these elements is of great importance and has a direct influence on the safety of passengers, goods and vehicles. Different types of railway vehicles require absorption elements of different geometries and absorption power.

Inherent/Passive Safety for Fusion
Fusion Technology, 1986Fusion's success depends on having attractive safety and economic features. One of fusion's inherent advantages is the potential for being safer than other technologies. We should work toward making the potential become a demonstrable, cost-saving reality.

18th International Conference on Nuclear Engineering: Volume 3, 2010
The paper presents three types of a passive safety containment for a near future BWR. They are tentatively named Mark S+, Mark D and Mark X containments in the paper. They all have a leak tight secondary containment vessel (SCV) in order to meet the reactor site criteria without relying on an active standby gas treatment system at a DBA LOCA.

Limits of cars’ passive safety
Securitas Vialis, 2010Todavia hay grandes bolsas de gente que no tienen acceso a los automoviles y no han satisfecho su deseo innato a la movilidad. Por tanto, cada vez habra mas coches. Por otro lado, las materias primas y los recursos naturales son cada vez mas escasos. Con lo cual, los vehiculos seran cada vez mas caros.

A platform for the development and evaluation of passive safety applications
2012 IEEE Intelligent Vehicles Symposium, 2012In this paper, we present a platform for aiding in the development and evaluation of novel ITS passive safety applications. Such applications work by having vehicles detect certain events that may be dangerous to other vehicles and disseminating reports about these events using wireless communication.

Nuclear Engineering and Design, 2009
Abstract The paper presents two types of a passive safety containment for a near future BWR. They are named Mark S and Mark X containment. One of their common merits is very low peak pressure at severe accidents without venting the containment atmosphere to the environment. The PCV pressure can be moderated within the design pressure.

Designing Process of the Drone’s Passive Safety System
2016In this paper the authors would like to introduce a new air-bag’s prototype suitable for protecting valuable objects mounted on the drones. The experimental research results are presented for typical air-bag’s textile material. Laboratory tests were a base for the material’s model calibration process.

The NuScale Advanced Passive Safety Design
ASME 2011 Small Modular Reactors Symposium, 2011NuScale Power is designing an advanced passive nuclear power plant that does not rely on any external sources of power or coolant for safety. Accordingly, the NuScale design inherently prevents the types of issues which led to fuel damage at the Fukushima Daiichi facility.
