TAR-Based Domino Effect Model for Maritime Accidents

To thoroughly figure out the distribution and formation mechanism of maritime accidents, this study proposes a domino effect model based on temporal association rules (TAR) to analyze mine secrets behind accident—the accident chains. In study, British Marine Accident Investigation Branch (MAIB) reports are gathered examined. Of which, Ro-Ro ships, general cargo container ships top three ship types discussed. The is applied detected yielding series results. These show that resulting values from unsafe working practices death while very high 8.622 (Ro-Ro ship), 5.920 (General ship) 6.441 (Container respectively. It indicates prone accidents involving working. approach ubiquitous, chains compiled them may be widely employed in marine prevention proactive safety management.
