Incident and Accident Investigation Techniques to Inform Model-Based Design of Safety-Critical Interactive Systems
The quality of the design of an interactive safety-critical system can be enhanced by embedding data and knowledge from past experiences. Traditionally, this involves applying scenarios, usability analysis, or the use of metrics for risk analysis. This paper presents an approach that uses the information from incident investigations to inform...
Extending the Borders of Accident Investigation: Applying Novel Analysis Techniques to the Loss of the Brazilian Space Programme's Launch Vehicle VLS-1 V03
There has been a rapid increase in the complexity and integration of many safety-critical systems. In consequence, it is becoming increasingly difficult to identify the causes of incidents and accidents back through the complex interactions that lead up to an adverse event. At the same time, there is a growing...
Looking Beyond the Cockpit: Human Computer Interaction in the Causal Complexes of Aviation Accidents
Aviation mishaps stem from complex combinations of human error, managerial failure, design flaws, environmental and meteorological factors. Mackie uses 'Causal fields' to denote a subjective frame of reference that guides a search for particular causes. This helps to explain why many investigators focus on 'Primary' forms of human computer interaction....
The Role of Night Vision Equipment in Military Incidents and Accidents
It is important to emphasize that the additional capabilities provided by night vision devices also create new risks. Night operations continue to result in significantly more accidents and incidents than their daytime counterparts. Some of these mishaps can be directly attributed to problems in the design of night vision devices....
Road Traffic Accident Information System - First Year Report
Every year, around 3,500 people are killed on Britain's roads and 40,000 are seriously injured. The governments have launched several campaigns, such as "Think!" and Scottish Road Safety Campaign SRSC, to help people become aware of road safety issues and try to reduce road accident. The author tries to develop...
Using Software Development Standards to Analyse Accidents Involving Electrical, Electronic or Programmable, Electronic Systems: The Blade Mill PLC Case Study
This paper presents the results of a project commissioned by the Electrical and Control Systems Unit of the UK Health and Safety Executive. The results of the project will be used to give guidance to operators and suppliers of Electrical, Electronic or Programmable Electronic Systems (E/E/PES) in satisfying particular requirements...
Risk and Decision-Making in Military Incident and Accident Reporting Systems
Incident and accident reporting systems can be used to identify patterns of operator behavior in the causes and mitigation of adverse events. Most attention in this area has, however, focused on the civilian process, healthcare and transportation industries. In contrast, this paper focuses on human factors issues in military incident...
