Abstract
Safety and environmental protection are among the most important concerns of companies worldwide. They develop complex software to model the consequences of damage in an accident at a petrochemical plant. In particular, the explosions. Generally, in order to achieve the objectives, we suggest an abacus very easy to use and simple as to determine the fatality probability (lethality likelihood) or material damage (glass breakage) by the overpressure effect by two methods: TNT and TNO Multi-Energy, and at the same time to determine the strengths and weaknesses of these two methods. © 2020, Politechnica University of Bucharest.
