  • Ways of addressing this concern:
  • 1. improvement of track infrastructure

and rolling stocks

  • 2. prevention of HAZMAT involvement

cars in an accident

  • 3. reducing the rate of HAZMAT release
  • 4. reducing the severity of HAZMAT

release

  • Developing an integrated risk assessment

framework

  • Applying the proposed model to a case study

corridor

  • Comparing the case study findings to previous

study results

Proposed Model

  • Objective function

Minimizing the HAZMAT derailment risk

  • Constraints

Guarantee that each car would be located in

  • ne position of its block

Guarantee that each position of a block would be occupied by one car which belongs to this block

Proposed Model

  • Constraints

Prevent locating any HAZMAT car next to

  • perating engine

Kept separate HAZMAT cars from one another and the cars which belong to group E, based on matrix λ.

Guarantees that the rail yard train assembly costs for each HAZMAT placement strategy should be less than the maximum time which is announced by the yard master Yard Operation Cost Constraint

Conclusions

  • Proposing a new closed-form mixed integer

programming model with yard operation cost constraint

  • Proposing a two stage solution procedure

Recommendations

  • Considering consequence in the calculation of

risk value

  • Combining routing problems with the proposed

risk minimization model
