The main objective of the project is to identify the aspects that influence the safety of road tunnels in the context of the circulation of vehicles powered by hydrogen and vehicles that transport hydrogen. In this framework, the specific objectives of the project are:

Study the current state of the vehicles that are powered and that transport hydrogen and the current security measures that are applied in tunnels.
Identify the main aspects that influence the safety of the tunnels.
Select and simulate a series of possible scenarios based on the identified aspects.
