Using STAMP to Develop Leading Indicators

Ths paper describes an approach to using STMP and STPA to derive leading indicators of increasing risk. There are always warning signs before a major accident, but these signs may only be noticeable or interpretable as a leading indicator in hindsight. Before an accident, such “weak signals” are often perceived only as noise. The problem then becomes how to distinguish the important signals fro...

scour modeling piles of kambuzia industrial city bridge using hec-ras and artificial neural network

today, scouring is one of the important topics in the river and coastal engineering so that the most destruction in the bridges is occurred due to this phenomenon. whereas the bridges are assumed as the most important connecting structures in the communications roads in the country and their importance is doubled while floodwater, thus exact design and maintenance thereof is very crucial. f...

Leading indicators of trophic cascades.

Regime shifts are large, long-lasting changes in ecosystems. They are often hard to predict but may have leading indicators which are detectable in advance. Potential leading indicators include wider swings in dynamics of key ecosystem variables, slower return rates after perturbation and shift of variance towards lower frequencies. We evaluated these indicators using a food web model calibrate...

Leading Indicators of CAD Experience

Current interfaces and help facilities of CAD systems are not designed to respond to a user’s performance. To develop such adaptive environments, a better understanding of the indicators of CAD experience is required. This paper discusses the results of studying behavior patterns of different types and levels of CAD users for a specific drawing task. The results show that the type and experienc...
