To date, there has been considerable work on dynamic event trees and other areas related
to dynamic probabilistic safety assessment (PSA). The counterpart to these efforts in human …

In this paper, we propose a method to improve the data basis of human reliability analysis
(HRA) by extending the data sources used to inform HRA methods. Currently, most HRA …

The team's cognitive behavior plays a crucial role in dealing with accidents at nuclear power
plants. Herein, the main behaviors of reactor operators and coordinators in performing …

Human factors engineering (HFE) combines elements of several engineering disciplines,
psychology, and computer science into a single discipline (Boring, 2002). Two major …

Human error data is invaluable for validating low probability events, in the absence of
operation plant data, in existing traditional static HRA approaches, but it is also crucial for …

When designing and developing systems in safety critical or cost intensive environments it is
important to identify as much potential risks as possible prior to operating the system. This …

The theory of learned carelessness offers an explanation why humans take unnecessary
risks by omitting safety precautions against better judgment, but empirical research on …
