Human and organisational factors in maritime accidents: analysis of collisions at sea using the HFACS.

TL;DR: A modified version of the Human Factors Analysis and Classification System, which has been adapted to the maritime context and used to analyse human and organisational factors in collisions reported by the Marine Accident and Investigation Branch (UK) and the Transportation Safety Board (Canada) is presented.

Analytical HFACS for investigating human errors in shipping accidents.

TL;DR: An analytical Human Factors Analysis and Classification System (HFACS), based on a Fuzzy Analytical Hierarchy Process (FAHP), is generated in order to identify the role of human errors in shipping accidents.

Influences of variables on ship collision probability in a Bayesian belief network model

TL;DR: Changing course in an encounter situation is the most influential variable in the model, followed by variables such as the Officer of the Watch's action, situation assessment, danger detection, personal condition and incapacitation.

Human Fatigue’s Effect on the Risk of Maritime Groundings - A Bayesian Network Modeling Approach

TL;DR: In this article, a Bayesian Network (BN) of human fatigue in the bridge management team and the risk of ship grounding is proposed, and the qualitative part of the BN has been structured based on modifying the Human Factor Analysis and Classification System (HFACS).
