Coordination: TNO
Partners: BMT, CTO, MAR, SIR, UST, LIS, VIK, BV, RIN, BAL, GUT, SSRC, HAL, FSG and Carnival.

This project is emphasising on the rescue process by both quantifying the performance of the LSAs and improving the concept of reaching the rescue vessel in a safe and reliable manner. The challenge is to exploit a first principles approach (regarding hydromechanics, mechanics, human behaviour, quantitative risk assessment and emergency management) in the design of rescue systems for passengers and crew, addressing both hardware and procedure/management.
