Probabilistic Causal Analysis for System Safety Risk Assessments in Commercial Air Transport

چکیده

Aviation is one of the critical modes of our national transportation system. As such, it is essential that new technologies be continually developed to ensure that a safe mode of transportation becomes even safer in the future. The NASA Aviation Safety Program (AvSP) is managing the development of new technologies and interventions aimed at reducing the fatal aviation accident rate by a factor of 5 by year 2007 and by a factor of 10 by year 2022. A portfolio assessment is currently being conducted to determine the projected impact that the new technologies and/or interventions may have on reducing aviation safety system risk. This paper reports on advanced risk analytics that combine the use of a human error taxonomy, probabilistic Bayesian Belief Networks, and case-based scenarios to assess a relative risk intensity metric. A sample case is used for illustrative purposes.

Risk Analysis of Operating Room Using the Fuzzy Bayesian Network Model

To enhance Patient’s safety, we need effective methods for risk management. This work aims to propose an integrated approach to risk management for a hospital system. To improve patient’s safety, we should develop flexible methods where different aspects of risk and type of information are taken into consideration. This paper proposes a fuzzy Bayesian network to model and analyze risk in the op...

Including Health in Environmental Assessments of Major Transport Infrastructure Projects: A Documentary Analysis

Background Transport policy and practice impacts health. Environmental Impact Assessments (EIAs) are regulated public policy mechanisms that can be used to consider the health impacts of major transport projects before they are approved. The way health is considered in these environmental assessments (EAs) is not well known. This research asked: How and to what extent was human health considere...

Development and Validation of a Comprehensive Hybrid Causal Model for Safety Assessment and Management of Aviation Systems

The United States Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has initiated the development of a causal risk model of commercial air transport in support of the System Approach for Safety Oversight (SASO) program. The model uses the so-called Hybrid Causal Logic (HCL) methodology which combines Event Sequence Diagrams (ESD), fault trees (FT) and Bayesian Belief Networks (BBN). The model is hierarchic...
