Maritime Transportation: Safety Management and Risk Analysis
TLDR
The essential guide to the safety of maritime transportation for anyone in the field is presented in this article, which covers all aspects of maritime risk and safety from engineering and operational perspectives, as well as regulatory and health and safety requirements, addressing the needs of both professionals and students working in the related fields of shipping management, ship design and naval architecture and transport management.Abstract:
Shipping and marine transportation is a highly regulated global industry. With heightened public awareness of the environmental and human cost of marine accidents, and tighter legislation from governments and international bodies on ships and shipping operations, the safe and efficient operation of ships is a priority for all ship builders, owners and operators. This book is the essential guide to the safety of maritime transportation for anyone in the field. The book covers all aspects of maritime risk and safety from engineering and operational perspectives, as well as regulatory and health and safety requirements. It addresses the needs of both professionals and students working in the related fields of shipping management, ship design and naval architecture and transport management, as well as fields including safety management, insurance and accident investigation.read more

Traffic simulation based ship collision probability modeling
Floris Goerlandt,Pentti Kujala +1 more
TL;DR: A method is proposed to assess the probability of vessels colliding with each other, capable of determining the expected number of accidents, the locations where and the time when they are most likely to occur, while providing input for models concerned with the expected consequences.

Maritime transportation risk analysis: Review and analysis in light of some foundational issues
Floris Goerlandt,Jakub Montewka +1 more
TL;DR: A review and analysis of risk definitions, perspectives and scientific approaches to risk analysis found in the maritime transportation application area, focusing on applications addressing accidental risk of shipping in a sea area reveals that in theApplication area, risk is strongly tied to probability, both in definitions and perspectives, while alternative views exist.

Incorporation of formal safety assessment and Bayesian network in navigational risk estimation of the Yangtze River
TL;DR: The navigational risk model is established by considering both probability and consequences of accidents with respect to a risk matrix method, followed by a scenario analysis to demonstrate the application of the proposed model.

Marine accident analysis for collision and grounding in oil tanker using FTA method
TL;DR: In this paper, collision and grounding data registered in GISIS (Global Integrated Shipping Information System) were investigated for oil tankers and the risk assessments were carried out using fault tree analysis.

Probabilistic risk analysis for ship-ship collision: State-of-the-art
TL;DR: Detailed literature on probabilistic risk analysis on ship-ship collision was collected and reviewed focusing on the stakeholders which may benefit from the research and the methodologies and criteria adopted for collision risk, to potentially contribute to developing better risk models and therefore better maritime transportation systems.
