Reliability Evaluation of Ship Driver Based on Failure Mode Effects and Criticality Analysis

Abstract:

Since human error accounts for more than 70% in the causes of maritime accidents, the analysis of human error mode will benefit the scientific analysis and evaluation of maritime traffic safety management, to get the nature security finally. With the application of Failure mode, effects, and criticality analysis （FMECA）, this paper sums up ten specific human failure modes. After the analysis of the modes based on materials from British Maritime Commission, it uses the Criticality Analysis （CA） to analyze the major mode of high hazard. The result has important guiding significance and value on refining the main hazards of maritime accidents, and the nature of maritime management.
