Stationary equipment

The stationary equipment node in RISKCURVES represents a single point on a map where a loss of containment scenario is modelled, and risk analysis takes place. This point is defined by its geographical coordinates.

Defining stationary equipment

• Add equipment

  • Right-click on the ‘‘Stationary equipment’’ node in the project tree.

  • Select <Add equipment> from the context menu.

  • Rename the new "Equipment" by pressing F2 or double-clicking the name string and providing a descriptive name.

• Set location

  • The primary input for stationary equipment is its location or coordinate.

  • You can set the location by selecting it on a background map using the right mouse button.

  • Alternatively, coordinates can be entered manually in the active projection system.

  • Use the “Show release point” toolbar button to illustrate the location with a label and cross on the map

Tips for managing equipment

Rename the equipment by pressing <F2> with the equipment node selected, or clicking on the node twice.

Copy and paste: Select the equipment node and use Edit > Copy (or <Ctrl>-C) and Edit > Paste (or <Ctrl>-V) to duplicate the equipment.

Delete by selecting the equipment node and pressing the <Del> button to delete the selected equipment.

By following these steps, you can efficiently add, rename, duplicate, and delete equipment in RISKCURVES, ensuring your models are well-organised and easily manageable. This structured approach helps maintain clarity and precision in your risk analysis projects.
