TECHNOLOGY AND SAFETY OF MARINE SYSTEMS
This book presents a risk-based approach to marine safety. Shortfalls in traditional methods of risk analysis are identified and solutions are presented. Individual chapters cover: ship safety and accident statistics; safety analysis techniques; formal safety assessment of ships and its relation to offshore safety case approach; formal safety assessment; risk assessment using fuzzy set approach; modified failure mode and effects analysis; maintenance modeling; human error assessment and decision making using analytical hierarchy processing; and novel risk modeling and decision making techniques. The book is suitable for a wide range of readers, including industrial safety, design and operation engineers; marine and offshore specialists; undergraduate and graduate students; and academic and industrial researchers.
