Risk analysis involving human factors |
Kim Rostgaard Christensen

| Abstract | This thesis seeks to identify and determine the signifi cance of human factors in complex safety-critical systems. It is an area with a lot of uncertainty as humans are themselves complex systems. Most established methods for modelling accidents, have proved themselves too crude for use in resilience engineering, and more sophisticated methods are starting to show. The relative new method FRAM is looked upon more closely in the thesis. This purpose of this thesis is to document, discuss and apply a modern method for capturing human factors in a safety system - using a real-world accident as an example. |
