An exhaustive assessment of the explosion and fire hazard and involved in the crude-oil and off-loading facility proposed for the Deep Water Port, Galveston, Texas Ernest P. Bergmann, Ernest P. Bergmann Southwest Research Institute, San Antonio, Texas 78284 Ernest P. Bergmann joined Southwest Research Institute following more than 20 years of research and development and mechanical design experience. His background includes serving as program manager or principal investigator on a variety of ordnance projects, including the development of gun-boosted rockets; liquid-filled pellets as incendiary weapons; design studies on non-hazardous incapacitating munitions; and exploratory development of an advanced fuel kill mechanism. he served as program manager on two caseless gun programs in which both the gun and ammunition were developed under his guidance. His background also includes the definition and design of an armament system for an advanced bomber, the systems analysis of alternative countermine equipment in a battlefield environment, and an operations analysis of the use of countermine equipment and EOD teams to clear mines, duds and delay weapons from airfields after enemy attack. He authored a series of task reports on the asessment of the machinery noise problem in the fabricated metal products industry. His recent research includes hazards analyses of process equipment, hazards classifications of process operations and equipment, a fire and explosion hazards assessment of a deep water port and an assessment of explosion hazards of EOD operations. He is a registered Professional Engineer in Texas.Search for more papers by this authorJ. P. Riegel III, J. P. Riegel III Southwest Research Institute, San Antonio, Texas 78284 John P. Riegel joined the Southwest Research Institute Department of Energetic Systems during his senior year at UTSA and assumed a permanent position upon graduation. During this time he has been involve in several areas of ballistics and explosives research. Prior to joining the Institute, he worked on several NASA grants at UTSA. This work included the writing of computer programs to facilitate the design and construction of a fast ion mass spectrometer (FIMS) for flight on The University of Texas at Dallas cleft sounding rocket and for future satellite use. He also developed a program to determine the trajectory of TADs (throwaway detectors) to be launched from the space shuttle and he worked on the selection and reduction of data for the Atmospheric Explorer Satellites. He holds a B.S. in Applied Physics from the University of Texas, at San Antonio, and has done graduate study in Business Administration.Search for more papers by this author Ernest P.
