Abstract
A new modelling system, SMART, is under development for the simulation of accidental releases dispersion. The interfacing code ARAMIS was originally created to interface the non-hydrostatic atmospheric model MOLOCH and the Lagrangian stochastic dispersion model SPRAY. Here, a comparison between simulations with the new modelling suite SMART and the RMS modelling system, applied in several previous assessment studies, is presented for a case of a release in complex terrain in southern Italy. The new suite is planned to be adopted as a tool for emergency response purposes in any part of the Italian territory at any time.
