Risk analysis for the road transportation of hazardous chemicals in Malaysia: a methodology

Quantitative risk analysis was recognized as a proper method for assessing the risk level of a hazardous activity, however, when this technique is applied to a transport case, there were several parameters and assumptions need to be considered before starting the Transportation Risk Analysis (TRA) c...
