Probabilistic Natech risk analysis in the defence sector
Natural hazard-triggered technological (Natech) accidents refer to releases of hazardous substances due to natural hazard impacts to technological systems, leading to toxic emission, fire, or explosion events. While relevant EU policy and legislation (e.g., SEVESO III Directive 2012/18/EU) exist for industrial facilities, military installations are usually excluded from their scope. Nonetheless, Natech accidents could also occur in military facilities that store, process, or transport hazardous substances (e.g., explosives), potentially leading
