Cause Mechanism of the Human Factors in Maritime Accidents Based on Complex System Brittleness

Publication: ICTIS 2013: Improving Multimodal Transportation Systems-Information, Safety, and Integration

Abstract

The human factor is becoming the primary cause of maritime accidents in recent years. The key to preventing accidents is to understand the accident-causing mechanism of human error and the weakest link of the human error system. Based on a large quantity of research of human errors in maritime accidents, by using complex system brittleness theory, a human error brittle model of complex system based on cellular automaton is built to analyze the internal brittle link of the system. The paper will provide a new method to research accident causing mechanism of human error.
