ISHPMIE IV, The Fourth International Symposium on Hazards, Prevention, and Mitigation of
Indutrial Explosions
was held in Bourges, France, at the École Nationale Supérieure d'Ingénieurs
de Bourges (ENSIB), Laboratoire Énergétique Explosions Structures (LEES) in October 2002. This
is a site where Professor J. Brossard conducted early research on gaseous detonation and safety
aspects and the ENSIB is a specialised engineering school in industrial risks.
