Evaluation of Occurrence Frequencies of Marine Accidents by Event Tree Analysis

  • Conference paper
Probabilistic Safety Assessment and Management

Abstract

Event tree analysis has been applied to the estimation of occurrence frequency of marine accidents. Questionnaire surveys to captains and navigators were performed for the estimation of human error probabilities and occurrence probabilities of navigation conditions, and valuable data in maritime field were collected. Occurrence probabilities of events peculiar to marine accidents are estimated by utilizing maritime data and methods used in marine field.
