商品簡介
Focusing on accident prevention rather than accident analysis, Hollnagel (human-machine interaction, Linkoping U., Sweden) uses an accident model as a primary element of prevention. After a thorough review of barrier functions and systems, he compares the strengths and weaknesses of sequential, epidemiological and systems models. He concludes by proposing the functional resonance accident model and delineates its four steps. The text is applicable to all major application areas, such as aviation, ground transportation, maritime, process industries, healthcare and service providers.
