Introduction of the human factor in the estimation of accident frequencies through fuzzy logic
González Dan, J.R.; Arnaldos Viger, Josep; Darbra Roman, Rosa Maria (2015-09-14)
Article
Accés obertThe frequency of occurrence of an accident scenario is one of the key aspects to take into consideration in the field of risk assessment. This frequency is commonly assessed by a generic failure frequency approach. Although ... -
Methodology for the quantification of toxic dispersions originated in warehouse fires and its application to the QRA in Catalonia (Spain)
Seguí Julià, Xavier; Darbra Roman, Rosa Maria; Vílchez Sánchez, Juan Antonio; Arnaldos Viger, Josep (2014)
Article
Accés restringit per política de l'editorialA tool for the quantification of the consequences of toxic dispersions coming from fires in warehouses has been developed. This tool is expected to be applied in the framework of the risk assessment in Catalonia, specifically ... -
Monte carlo simulation as a tool to show the influence of the human factor into the quantitative risk assessment
González Dan, José Roberto; Guix Pujolar, Alan; Martí Gregorio, Vicenç; Arnaldos Viger, Josep; Darbra Roman, Rosa Maria (2016-07)
Article
Accés obertThe frequency of occurrence of an accident is a key aspect in the risk assessment field. Vari- ables such as the human factor (HF), which is a major cause of undesired events in process industries, are usually not considered ... -
