Managing safety risks in Industry 4.0 (SAFETY ASSURANCE 4.0). KU Leuven
The TETRA project "Safety Assurance 4.0 - Management of Safety Risks in Industry 4.0" aims to answer the question of how to ensure that cooperative/collaborative robots, autonomous mobile robots, autonomously guided vehicles and other autonomous systems can operate safely without having to be trapped in a safety cage.
The following concrete objectives have been set for the Safety Assurance 4.0 TETRA project:
1. To draw up a ...
SaFeR: European Training Network on Safety of Autonomous Systems KU Leuven
To realize and fully exploit the positive potential of autonomy, community needs to have ways of making such systems safe. The specific safety challenges of autonomous systems and the technologies that enable autonomy are not adequately addressed by current safety management practices and standards. It is clear that autonomous systems can introduce many new paths to accidents, and that autonomous system technologies may not be practical to ...
Safe Cost integrated coastal safety - Coastal Flood Risk Calculations (addendum 8) Ghent University
The contract involves conducting coastal flood calculations within the framework of the European project SAFE COAST and as part of the Integrated Coastal Safety Plan. In particular, it is required modeling of the failure behavior of sea walls in relation to hydraulic modeling of a coastal flooding and loss and risk calculation
WIreless Safety for Employees – Safe wireless communication in industrial and work environments: exposure and propagation Ghent University
Soon, a EU directive will be effective, determining that each employer has to evaluate the exposure of its workers. This project focuses on the reduction of the absorption of electromagnetic radiation in workers on a way that the competitivity of the companies are nog in danger.

Fire safety in elderly facilities: research into the effectiveness of alternative fire safety in new care concepts Ghent University
The study should control the effectiveness of alternative brandveiligheidsmaat- in existing and new forms of older facilities under-searching. On the basis of the results of the research will be formulated, an assessment framework as a support of the advice on possible deviations on the one hand and as a basis for an adjustment of the regulation on the other hand. The adaptation of the regulation is aimed at the limitations of the safety ...
