Research Highlights
Published Articles by Dr. M. Sam Mannan

Our programs and research activities enhance safety in the process industries. Our educational activities are aimed at making safety second nature to everyone in the industry. In addition, we develop safer processes, equipment, procedures and management strategies to minimize losses.

We provide consultation services for small and medium enterprises, government agencies, institutions, local emergency planning committees and others agencies. Independent accident analysis services are also available to industry and government agencies, particularly for accidents suggesting new or complex phenomena.
