Track Description

Many decision making processes are limited or supported by occupational health and safety activities. Simulation tools can also be a great benefit for safety related activities likes ergonomic design of workplace, material handling, teaching and training, fire engineering and many other scientific areas. Academic and professional activities on Modelling and Simulation are offered in order to analyze safety processes, costs, advantages and disadvantages during the implementation of mitigation measures, fire protection and emergencies.

Topics of
interest include:

· Modelling for Material Handling and Ergonomic Design;

· Fire Engineering and Emergencies Modelling and Simulation;

· Human factor and Behavior in simulation;

· Teaching and Training Modelling.
