Hazard Mitigation through a Systemic Model of Accident to a Socio-Technical System: A Case Study
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents the STAMP (system-theoretic accident modeling and processes) accident model, based on systems theory, and describes its application in the context of risk prevention related to the remediation of contaminated sediments. The implementation of the model is described, and results are presented both in methodological and technical terms. The goal of this article is to emphasize the need of new approaches to take into account hazards and accidents within socio-technical systems.

The Application of Systems-Theoretic Accident Model and Process in the Systematic Nonlinear Analysis of Accidents in Car Industry
Background & objectives: Hundreds of methods have been introduced to analyze various events. Hence one of the effective and principle steps in accident analysis is proper and targeted selection of accident analysis method. Traditional methods of accident analysis in complex industries are not comprehensive and examine each components of the system separately. So, the use of new systematic metho...
متن کاملDeveloping Ubiquitous Road Accident Hazard Map (Case Study: Tabriz- Marand Road)
Modeling a road accident hazard zoning map to identify high-risk areas is a very effective step to reduce the resulting casualties. Due to the dynamic nature of many of the factors affecting the identification of these areas, traditional zoning mapping does not seem to be effective. In the field of ubiquitous modeling in the framework of the GIS, it is possible to produce a separate map at any ...

The objective of this paper is three fold. First, a general framework for development of total ergonomics model is introduced. Second, it is described how total ergonomics model may be applied in practice to intensify the productivity and working conditions of manufacturing systems. Third, it is shown whether the total ergonomics model is superior to the conventional ergonomics approach. This s...
متن کاملAn Optimization Model for Financial Resource Allocation Towards Seismic Risk Reduction
This paper presents a study on determining the degree of effectiveness of earthquake risk mitigation measures and how to prioritize such efforts in developing countries. In this paper a model is proposed for optimizing funds allocation towards risk reduction measures (building retrofitting) and reconstruction process after potential earthquakes in a regional level. The proposed model seeks opti...
متن کاملSystemic Risk, Information Technology Artifacts, and High Reliability Organizations: A Case of Constructing a Radical Architecture
“The test of a first-class mind is the ability to hold two opposing views...at the same time and still retain the ability to function.” (F. Scott Fitzgerald) In distributed, complex socio-technical systems, risks increasingly originate from multiple sources, affect multiple agents in diverse ways, and thus become systemic. The traditional linear causal model of risk control and an individual de...
