Publication: ICTIS 2013: Improving Multimodal Transportation Systems-Information, Safety, and Integration
Abstract
The Yangtze is the most important shipping waterway in China. As such, the safety assessment of navigation in the Yangtze River is very important to the development of China's shipping. The current evaluation model pays more attention to the influence of a single navigation risk factor, ignoring the interaction between risk factors. This paper introduces system dynamics to analyze of risk factors that affect the security of the Yangtze River shipping industry. The study found that the level of professional skill of the crew is the biggest risk factor. In order to reduce the risk of Yangtze River shipping, it is suggested that shipping companies strengthen crew management and enhance the professional skills of the crew members.
