“…To overcome this separation line, this methodology is presented in which an FTA is performed on an accident/incident to find the root cause of an undesired event [17]. Later task analysis is applied that identifies the sequence of the tasks that were performed and lead to the undesired event.…”

Abstract-This paper reviews the literature published on the recent modifications made in the field of risk assessment using Fault Tree Analysis (FTA)in the last decade. This method was developed in 1960's for the evaluation and estimation of system reliability and safety. In this paper we have presented the general procedure for FTA, its application in various fields and the modifications that have been made through the time to overcome the inadequacies of the method. In the last section some of the future wok is also discussed with a simplified methodology.Index Terms-Fault tree analysis (FTA), risk assessment, reliability and safety, hazard analysis, FTA modification.

“…Traditional incident identification techniques deal mainly with the identification of a sequence of events hoping to identify unsafe acts or conditions; what happened [9]. Some go beyond looking at causal analysis to identify the relationship between incident events and the breakdown of any controls; how it happened.…”

Abstract:The minerals industry is a complex work domain where people, procedures and equipments need to interact safely and efficiently. Given the importance of the human element in this industry, it is surprising that, to date, comparatively few studies have been published that specifically examine operator decision making. This paper presents two ongoing case studies from different sectors of mining and minerals processing that are drawing heavily on 'Naturalistic Decision Making' (NDM) approaches and methods. The case studies involve analyzing incidents using the Critical Decision Method and how Naturalistic Decision Making methods and design processes can help improve interfaces in process control. Following this, the paper will discuss this work and comment on the worth of the overall NDM approach to the minerals industry. Some of the lessons learnt will be highlighted and potential future research recommended.

“…Magott and Skrobanek (2012) discussed timing analysis of safety properties using fault trees with time dependencies. Doytchev and Szwillus (2009) presented a procedure for combining task analysis and fault tree analysis for accident and incident analysis. They presented a case study from Bulgaria.…”

This paper presents a study which deals with the analysis of hazardous conditions and near misses using the fault trees. These conditions may lead to accidents and catastrophes. In particular, specific data are collected on the situations or disorders that could lead to hazardous and near miss conditions in a company. A near miss is an occurrence of an event that could almost result in a catastrophe. Based on the collected data, approximate probabilities are assigned to various basic events and a risk assessment is made for the final events, such as the hazardous and the near-miss events. The analysis was useful in identifying all the related sub-events and basic events in a fault tree structure in addition to determining the probability of final events. In addition to evaluation of associated risks, cost analysis was also carried out to determine possible accident prevention costs. These types of analysis help the managers to visually see all the possibilities and to take the necessary actions for eliminating possible causes of accidents and increasing the safety to a maximum possible level.
