An evaluation method for HMI of deep-sea manned submersible based on human reliability

Abstract

Improving the human reliability of the human–machine interface (HMI) of deep-sea manned submersible is of great importance for the development of the deep-sea field. Based on the SHEL (Software S, Hardware H, Environment E, Liveware L) model, this study classifies the performance shaping factors (PSF) that affect the human reliability of submersible HMIs and builds a PSF system. The interpretative structural model (ISM) is used to matrix the interactions between the elements that make up the system of PSF. A multi-level recursive structure is obtained by building the corresponding adjacency matrix. The Noisy-OR model is introduced to construct a Bayesian network in order to build a new HMI evaluation method. A real case of Bayesian network causal inference verifies the validity of the built method. This study proposes a set of HMI human reliability evaluation methods applicable to deep-sea manned submersible, which provides a new idea for human reliability assessment.
