CASCEFF

The EU project CascEff is funded via the Seventh Framework Programme. The CascEff consortium consists of twelve partners from five countries and is coordinated by SP Technical Research Institute of Sweden. The Consortium has appointed an independent External Expert Advisory Board (EEAB) comprised of end users of the results of the CascEff Project to ensure that the tools developed are truly useful in a real-life situation... Escalating incidents in complex environments can lead to severe cascading effects and quickly become extremely difficult for emergency services to handle. Such incidents can have enormous consequences with respect to life, property and the environment and for both infrastructure and the general public. These consequences can in many situations have both direct and indirect effects, not only in the immediate surrounding geographical area but also across very large areas, potentially extending across borders.
