Hazard and operability (HAZOP) analysis: A review of basics
نویسنده
چکیده
Hazard and operability (HAZOP) methodology is a Process Hazard Analysis (PHA) technique used worldwide for studying not only the hazards of a system, but also its operability problems, by exploring the effects of any deviations from design conditions. Our paper is the HAZOP review intended to gather HAZOP-related literature from books, guidelines, standards, major journals, and conference proceedings, with the purpose of classifying the research conducted over the years and define the HAZOP state-of-the-art.

Component-based HazOp and Fault Tree Analysis in Developing Embedded Real-Time Systems with UML
Hazard and Operability (HazOp) and Fault Tree Analyses (FTA) are embedded into UML component models. The latter are constructed by employing UML's extension mechanisms in conjunction with component-based software techniques. Taking an application's safety-related requirements into consideration, the elements of HazOp and FTA are defined as component attributes, and assigned to a UML component m...

متن کاملA COMPARISON OF THE HAZARD AND OPERABILITY (HAZOP) STUDY WITH MAJOR HAZARD ANALYSIS (MHA): A MORE EFFICIENT AND EFFECTIVE PROCESS HAZARD ANALYSIS (PHA) METHOD by Paul Baybutt and Remigio Agraz-Boeneker
The Hazard and Operability (HAZOP) study is the most commonly used process hazard analysis (PHA) method in the process industries. While the HAZOP method provides a more thorough and complete treatment than other classical PHA methods, HAZOP studies tend to be tedious and time-consuming which can compromise the quality of the work performed. Major Hazard Analysis (MHA) was developed in an attem...

This paper summarises the experience gained from application of Hazard and Operability Studies (HAZOP) and related techniques to four computer-based systems. Emphasis is placed on working practices and the integration of HAZOP-style analysis into a safety-oriented lifecycle. Two of the case studies are described in some detail. An industrial study is used to investigate working practices, highl...
