Abstract:

Government control of handguns for the purpose of reducing the incidence of accidental and/or intentional death and injury has not proven effective. Much of the research concerning accidental death and injury from firearms approaches the problem epidemiologically and identifies the gun as the agent. This study examined “control” of the handgun user through required training which stressed safety and legal use of the handgun. This study examined data involving 294 handgun owners for a five-year time period to determine the effectiveness of handgun training on accident reduction. The results were significant and supported the need for owner training in handgun use to reduce the incidence of accidents.

Abstract:

Abstract The inherent benefits of an accident prevention program are generally known only after an accident has occurred. The purpose of implementation of the program is to minimize the number of accidents and cost of damages. Allocation of resources to implement accident prevention program is vital because it is difficult to estimate the extent of damage caused by an accident. Accurate fatal accident predictions can provide a meaningful data that can be used to implement accident prevention program in order to minimize the cost of accidents. This paper forecast the fatal accidents of factories in India by using Auto-Regressive Integrating Moving Average Method (ARIMA) model. Accident data for the available period 1980 to 2013 was collected from the Labour bureau, Government of India to analyze the long term forecasts. Different diagnostic tests are applied in order to check the adequacy of the fitted models. The results show that ARIMA (0, 0, 1) is suitable model for prediction of fatal injuries. The number of fatal accidents is forecasted for the period 2014 to 2019. These results suggest that the policy makers and the Indian labour ministry must focus attention toward increasing fatal accidents and try to find out the reasons. It is also an opportunity for the policy makers to develop policies which may help in minimizing the number fatal accidents.

Abstract:

The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between accident types and the regions where the accidents occur, and to examine whether the resources required for accident prevention are distributed appropriately in the accident regions. In the study, the relationship between seven different types of accidents that occurred in seven different regions between the years of 2001-2016 was analyzed through the correspondence analysis. This analysis has been preferred because of its successful applications in various studies on accidents in the literature. As a result of the study, a significant relationship was found between accident types and accident regions, which means accident types vary by regions and there are accident types specific to accident regions. Collision in the Istanbul, grounding in the Canakkale and capsize accidents in the Izmir were determined to be more frequent. These findings are consistent with previous studies. It has been observed that, among regions, there are some imbalances in the distribution of resources used for marine accident response.

Abstract:

Introduction: Traffic accidents are an undesirable burden on society. Every year around one million deaths and more than ten million injuries are reported due to traffic accidents. Hence, traffic accidents prevention measures must be taken to overcome the accident rate. Different countries have different geographical and environmental conditions and hence the accident factors diverge in each country. Traffic accident data analysis is very useful in revealing the factors that affect the accidents in different countries. This article was written in the year 2016 in the Institute of Technology & Science, Mohan Nagar, Ghaziabad, up, India. Methology: We propose a framework to utilize association rule mining (arm) for the severity classification of traffic accidents data obtained from police records in Mujjafarnagar district, Uttarpradesh, India. Results: The results certainly reveal some hidden factors which can be applied to understand the factors behind road accidentality in this region. Conclusions: The framework enables us to find three clusters from the data set. Each cluster represents a type of accident severity, i.e. fatal, major injury and minor/no injury. The association rules exposed different factors that are associated with road accidents in each category. The information extracted provides important information which can be employed to adapt preventive measures to overcome the accident severity in Muzzafarnagar district.

Abstract:

Escalator accidents not only happen frequently but also have cascading effects. The purpose of this study is to block the formation of cascading accident networks by identifying and preventing critical hazards. A modified five-step task-driven method (FTDM) is proposed to break down passenger-related cascading escalator accidents. Three complex network parameters in complex network theory are utilized to identify critical and non-critical Risk Passenger Behavior (RPB) hazards and Other Hazards related with Risk Passenger Behavior (OH-RPB) in accident chains. A total of 327 accidents that occurred in the Beijing metro rail transit (MRT) stations were used for case studies. The results are consistent in critical and non-critical RPB and OH-RPB and prove that through combination of FTDM accident investigation model and complex network analysis method, critical and non-critical RPB and OH-RPB in a complicated cascading hazards network can be identified. Prevention of critical RPB can block the formation of cascading accident networks. The method not only can be used by safety manager to make the corresponding preventive measures according to the results in daily management but also the findings can guide the allocation of limited preventive resources to critical hazards rather than non-critical hazards. Moreover, the defects of management plan and product design can be re-examined according to the research results.

Abstract:

Construction industry is a high risk industry. With the continuous gigantism and complication of recent project scale, the consequences of safety accidents become more and more serious, and major accidents, especially major accidents have occurred occasionally. Meanwhile, students involved in the civil engineering practical teaching face more and more security risks, and thus affect the normal higher education practice. In order to control the security risks of civil engineering practical teaching, this paper, based on the theories of accident injury insurance and modern safety, will analyze the civil engineering practical teaching accident injury insurance and security mechanism, design the insurance rate, insurance deadline, insurance amount of accident injury, and recommend implementing practice accident injury prevention mechanism, namely the safety prevention system combined by security control and multi-level and multi-angel safety education.

Abstract:

Counterfactual thinking typically follows an unexpected event and involves the mental simulation of an alternative outcome which can be either better or worse than the original one. In general, exceptional and controllable events are selected for change over those that are routine and uncontrollable, and actions are likely to be changed over inactions. Importantly an individual’s social role is thought to be critical in determining what is changed and how. Counterfactual thoughts have been associated with causal thinking and more recently with missed opportunities to prevent an unwanted outcome. Accidents at work are unwanted outcomes and are likely to generate counterfactual thoughts. As slips and trips continue to cause a significant number of injuries they are the focus of this research. Safety Professionals, Managers and Accident Subjects are most commonly involved in accident investigations and the study asks whether their different social roles or the type of accident influences how they use counterfactual, prevention and causal thoughts. 612 respondents were recruited representing Safety Professionals, Managers and Accident Subjects. After reading a slip or trip scenario they completed a counterfactual, prevention and causal sentence and these were analysed against 14 structural dimensions, seven of which were used for the first time in this study. The respondent’s job group and the type of accident were found to influence certain structural dimensions of the counterfactual, prevention and causal thoughts more than others. The respondent’s job group strongly influenced counterfactual direction, and the addition or subtraction of antecedents based on actions or inactions, whilst the type of accident strongly influenced the temporal location of the antecedent. Norm Theory (Kahneman & Miller, 1986) proposed that exceptional antecedents were selected for counterfactual change and a categorisation of types of exceptional events has been developed and applied in this study. The implications of these types of thoughts by Safety Professionals, Managers and Accident Subjects are considered.

Abstract:

Objetivos. Analisar investigações de acidentes e materiais didáticos e educativos, explorando aspectos da construção das análises e de atribuição de culpa. Métodos. Registros de investigações e materiais didáticos de empresas de Botucatu-SP, em 1997, obtidos de instituições e empresas, foram analisados, identificando-se fatores causais, recomendações e referências a comportamentos faltosos ou características da vítima. Árvores de causas foram checadas quanto a cuidados de linguagem, desenhos, interrupções da investigação, tipos de relações entre fatos e exploração para prevenção. Materiais educativos foram analisados, identificando-se concepções de acidente, orientações para investigações e recomendações. Bancos de dados foram formados e gerenciados com EPIinfo. Resultados. Foram analisadas 203 investigações. A média de causas por AT foi 1,68 e a de recomendações foi 1,4 por AT, com predomínio de referências a comportamentos ou características da vítima. A maioria das análises baseava-se em formulário obrigatório. Todas as árvores analisadas mostravam desrespeito flagrante a regras e princípios do método. Materiais didáticos veiculavam mesma concepção de acidente das investigações, método de análise centrado em comportamentos faltosos do operador, estímulo ao medo de lesões e recomendações para obediência a regras e uso de equipamentos de proteção. Conclusão. As investigações adotam concepção de acidente baseada na identificação de situações de desrespeito a regras idealizadas, atribuem culpa ao acidentado e não subsidiam a gestão de riscos nas empresas. A atribuição de culpa ocorre independentemente da natureza e/ou tipo de perigo presente nos acidentes. Tentativas de uso do método de árvore de causas mostraram distorções, revelando insuficiência no seu domínio. A construção da culpa foi reforçada por materiais didáticos e educativos. Descritores: Acidentes do trabalho, investigações de acidentes, vigilância de acidentes.
Objectives: To analyze accident investigations and teaching and educational materials exploring aspects of analysis construction and blame attribution. Methods: Investigation reports and educational materials of companies in Botucatu, SP, in 1997, obtained from institutions and companies were analyzed and causal factors, recommendations and references to faulty behavior or victim characteristics were identified. Causal tree were checked in regard to language, design, investigation interruptions, types of relations between facts and exploration for prevention. Educational materials were analyzed identifying the conception of accident, orientation for investigations and recommendation. Data banks were formed and managed by EPIinfo. Results: 203 investigations with an average of 1,68 causes and 1,4 recommendations were analyzed and revealed that references to victims behavior or characteristics prevailed. Most analyses were based on an obligatory form. All analyzed trees showed evident disrespect to rules and methodological principles. The educational and teaching materials convey the same accident concept as the investigations, the analyses method centered in the faulty behavior of the operator, stimulus of fear to injury and recommendation for obedience to rules and use of protection equipment. Conclusion: The investigations studied use an accident concept based on the identification of situations of disrespect to idealized rules, blame the injured subjects, and do not support the risk management in the companies. The blame bias occurs independently of the nature or kind of danger involved in the accidents. The attempts to use the causal tree method revealed distortions due to insufficient command. Educational materials strengthened the construction of blame.

Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior (CAPES)
Partindo das hipóteses de que a freqüente ocorrência de acidentes semelhantes em sua causalidade pode estar relacionada com a estreita concepção mücausal de acidentes e de que compreendendo a atividade normal e a percepção dos operadores sobre a causalidade de acidentes é possível ampliar o leque da análise dos acidentes, esta pesquisa teve o objetivo geral de explorar concepções de acidentes do trabalho presentes em relatórios de análises de casos e no discm'so de diferentes profissionais em caldeiraria de empresa metalúrgica de médio porte. Método. Conhecimento da empresa e análise das atividades habituais de trabalho no setor de caldeiraria, com base na Análise Ergonômica do Trabalho; e conhecimento sobre as concepções de acidentes do trabalho, analisando os vá..rios discursos presentes na empresa. com base na estratégia metodológica da Análise de Conteúdo de Discursos. Resultados. Constatou-se que a concepção de acidentes como originados no ato inseguro é a que prevalece nos discursos da empresa, presentes no s relatórios e nas falas de chefias e de alguns operadores. Os operadores também expressam concepção multicausal sobre acidentes do trabalho, que leva em conta fatores individuais e coletivos, ambientais e organizacionais na gênese dos acidentes. O traballlO habitual no setor inclui variabilidades que exigem o uso de estratégias, regulações e adoção de modos operatórios, que se podem considerar degradados. Conclusão. O estudo mostra que a gestão formal da segurança desconhece o trabalho normal. A gestão da produção em situação real de trabalho, com uso de meios precários, necessidade de retrabalho. atuando em espaços insuficientes, etc, introduz pressões de tempo e outro s fatores que ensejam a necessidade de constantes regulações pelas chefias e operadores as quais, por sua vez, enfraquecem a segurança real.
Starting from the hypotheses that the frequent occurrence of lccidents similar in their causality can be related to direct rnllcausal conception of accidents and that comprehending the normal activity and perception of operators with respect to the causality of accidents, it is possible tO enlarge the scope of analysis of accidents. Thus the present study had the general objective of exploring conceptions of work accidents present in reports of analyses of cases and in the discourse of different professionals in the boiler shop and welding area of a medium-sized metallurgical business. Method. Knowledge of the business and analysis of habitual work activities in the boiler shop and welding sector, based on Ergonomic Analysis of Work; and knowledge on conceptions of work accidents, analyzing the various discourses present in the business, based on the methodological strategy of Content Analysis of Discourses. Results. lt was verified that the conception of accidents originated by an lUlsafe act is the most prevalent theme in the business discourses and is present in the repOlts and quotations of managers and of some operators. The operators also express multicausal conception on \vork accidents, which takes into account the individual, collective, environmental and organizational factors in the genesis of accidents. The habitual work in the sector inc1udes variabilities that demand the use of strategies, regulations and adoption of operational modes that can be considered degraded. Conclusion. The study showed that the formal security unknown the normal work. The production management in real work situation, with precarious means, re-works necessitude, acting in insufficient spaces, introduces time pressures and others factors which demands to using regulations and strategies by managers and operators, which make the real security becomes weakness.

Abstract:

The two objectives of the smart accident detection and prevention system (SADPS) are 1) accident prevention and 2) accident detection. Based on the survey, 1.3 million people die every year due to roadway accidents. The main reason for this type of accident is speeding. So, the proposed SADPS focused on finding the speed parameters of each vehicle and giving notification to speeding vehicles through SMS that can be used to prevent accidents. The second objective is accident detection. For this task, each vehicle accelerometer values will be taken by the SADPS system. When an accident occurs, the location as well as the related details are sent to the SADPS system. This proposed system takes the immediate remedy by alerting the nearby police station and hospitals. Proposed SADPS also acts as a video surveillance and monitoring system. Automatic background subtraction and object tracking is done with the help of novel approaches.

Abstract:

The CANDU 6 design includes features, both engineered and inherent, that act as barriers to prevent and mitigate severe accidents at progressive stages of a beyond design basis event such as that which occurred at Fukushima in March 2011. CANDU 6 has ample design margins including multiple layers of defense. Large inventories of water slow down any accident progression to severe accident conditions, even when multiple failures are assumed; giving operations staff more time to manage the event. Ongoing improvements to operating plants, and enhancements made to future evolutions of the CANDU design (including the Enhanced CANDU 6) improve upon these inherent features, further strengthening the CANDU 6 design to withstand severe core damage accidents.

Abstract:

Vehicle Stability Control systems (VSC) for four-wheeled vehicles like the electronic stability program (ESP) helped to decrease the number of traffic deaths in Germany to an all-time low over the last ten years. However, the number of people killed in powered two-wheeler accidents has been almost constant over the same period of time. Vehicle Stability Control systems for powered two-wheelers (especially motorcycles) so far include only anti-lock brakes and traction control systems, both systems are not designed to work in cornering. Further stability control systems are not known up to now. The objective of this paper is to assess the technical possibilities for future Vehicle Stability Control systems and the amount of accidents that could be prevented by those systems. From an accident analysis, all accidents not avoidable by today’s VSC Systems have been analyzed. Only accidents while cornering without braking have been determined as potentially avoidable by future technical systems (braked accidents have been counted as preventable by improved today’s systems). The accidents can be caused by insufficient friction (e.g. slippery road surface, sand, oil or to high curve speed). About 4 to 8 percent of all motorcycle accidents are of this type. The data source for accident descriptions were interviews of motorcycle experts who were able to describe their own accidents and detailed accident descriptions from an accident database. The accident types have been investigated with driving experiments and computer simulation. With a vehicle model different ways to influence the critical driving situations could be analyzed and evaluated. Experiments and simulations showed an instable roll and side-slip angular acceleration of the motorcycle during critical driving situations. The sideslip rate proved to be a robust criterion for recognizing whether a driving situation is critical. The roll movement of the vehicle cannot be influenced with reasonable means, because neither the lateral tire forces can be increased nor stabilizing gyros can be used since the necessary angular momentum is to large for a feasible package. The vehicle sideslip rate can be influenced by braking the front or the rear wheel, thus generating a yaw moment to avoid the dangerous high-side type accidents when friction changes back from low to high. The motorcycle accidents influenced by this system are only a small portion of the mentioned accidents, so as a result of this study, the potential for future vehicle dynamic control systems that help prevent non-braking cornering accidents is estimated quite low.

Abstract:

Accident Hazards, dangers, losses and risk are what we would to like to eliminate, minimize or avoid in industry. Modern industries have created many opportunities for these against which man’s primitive instincts offer no protection. In today’s complex industrial environment safety has become major preoccupation, especially after the realization that there is a clear economic incentive to do so. Industrial hazards may cause by human error or by physical or mechanical malfunction, it is very often possible to eliminate the worst consequences of human error by engineering modification. But the modification also needs checking very thoroughly to ensue that it has not introduced some new and unsuspected hazard.

Abstract:

Employees are increasingly working the nightshift or increased overtime. Many employees are operating systems while fatigued. Fatigue is induced by a number of factors, but most often it is caused by lack of sleep. Individuals who work late at night, longer than normal shifts, or random shift times may be prone to errors in attention, decision-making, and response to pertinent information. These errors lead to accidents. There are several simple methods to dramatically reduce the effect abnormal working hours has on the body. Fatigue is beginning to be recognized as a contributing factor in accidents, however more can be accomplished. Methods can be applied by both the employee and employer to prevent accidents from occurring as a result of fatigue. This paper will focus on methods of reducing the risk of human error in the workplace and address countermeasures used to reduce fatigue thus promoting a safer working environment.

Abstract:

CAP1400 is GenIII passive PWR, which was developed based on Chinese 40 years of experience in nuclear power R&D, construction&operation, as well as introduction and assimilation of AP1000. Severe accidents prevention and mitigation measures were systematically considered during the design and analysis. In order to accommodate high power and further improve the safety of the plant, also considering feedback from Fukushima accident, some innovative measures and design requirements were also applied. Based on the probabilistic&deterministic analysis and engineering judgment, considerable severe accidents scenarios were considered. Both severe accidents initiated at power and shutdown condition were analyzed. Insights were also obtained to decide the challenge to the plant. All known severe accidents phenomena and their treatment were considered in the design. In vessel retention (IVR) was applied as one of the severe accident mitigation measures. To improve the margin of IVR success and verify the heat removal capability through reactor pressure vessel, both design innovative measures and experiments were used. The melt pool behavior and corium pool configuration were also studied by using CFD code and thermodynamic code. Hydrogen risk was mitigated by installation of hydrogen igniters, which were comprised of two serials, and were powered by multiple power sources. To further improve the safety, six extra hydrogen passive recombiners were also added in the containment. Hydrogen risk was analyzed both inside containment and outside containment considering leakage effect. Other severe accident phenomena were also considered by designed or analyzed to show the containment robustness to accommodate it. As one of the Fukushima accident feedback, full scope severe accident management guideline were developed by considering both power condition and shutdown condition, accident management for spent fuel pool was also considered. As the basis of accident management during severe accidents, survivability of equipments and instruments that are necessary in severe accident were assessed and will be further tested and/or analyzed. Such tests will consider severe accident conditions arised from hydrogen combustion.

Abstract:

U.S. railroad accident rates have declined substantially since the 1980s; however, further improvement in train safety remains an important objective of the railroad industry. In this paper, we describe a framework developed to assess the cost-effectiveness of railroad infrastructure improvement to reduce railroad train accidents. Higher FRA track classes have been shown to be statistically correlated with lower accident rates, thereby indicating potential safety benefits. However, such infrastructure improvement also increases both capital and operating costs for track maintenance. We use accident data from the U.S. DOT Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) accident database and cost data from several recent U.S. railroad infrastructure maintenance projects presented in an FRA report to quantitatively evaluate the safety benefits and costs associated with infrastructure improvement decisions. Our model is intended to consider the trade-off between reduced accident rates and increased costs in evaluating railroad risk reduction strategies and operational decisions. The benefit-cost analysis framework is illustrated by considering the upgrade of track class 3 to class 4 in a hypothetical case study.

Abstract:

From the viewpoint of prevention of the accident of ships under anchorage, an anchor is a very important device. The anchor with various types and performances has been developed over the centuries. For example, JIS types and AC-14 types are mostly applied to Japanese ships at present. However, marine accidents by dredging anchor are not eliminated even now. There still seems a room for improvement of its performance by changing shapes and forms. There may be a problem also in the experiment method and a valuation method. The purpose of this research is to perform an anchor performance re-evaluation for marine accident prevention. The candidates for an experiment are JIS type, AC-14 type, DA-1 type stockless anchor and Danforth type stock anchors.

Abstract:

Railroads contribute to the national economy by carrying over 40% of intercity freight ton-miles in the United States. Train accidents cause damage to infrastructure and rolling stock, disrupt operations, and have the potential to result in casualties and damage the environment. A clear understanding and analysis of accident risk based on historical accidents can support the development and prioritization of effective accident prevention strategies. While extensive previous studies have focused on the safety risks associated with a variety of train operation conditions, much less work has been undertaken to evaluate train risk and safety under restricted speeds. As defined in 49 CFR 236 Subpart G, restricted speed is a speed that permits stopping within one-half the range of vision, but not exceeding 20 miles per hour. Nevertheless, some severe accidents at restricted speeds occurred in the last few years and are also highlighted in both NTSB and FRA reports. In this paper, we develop a quantitative analysis of restricted-speed accidents occurring between 2000 and 2016, based on the data from the U.S. Federal Railroad Administration. While overall accident rates have been proven to decline in prior studies, the preliminary results show that the rate of train accidents under restricted speeds fluctuates in the study period, without a significant increasing or decreasing trend. Furthermore, the distribution of restricted-speed accident severity, accident risk, and other pertinent characteristics are covered in this study.

Abstract:

The Enhanced CANDU 6 (EC6) plant design includes complementary design features that assist the goals of preventing severe accident scenarios and mitigating their consequences if they do occur. These features include design or procedural considerations (or both), and are based on a combination of phenomenological models, engineering judgments, and probabilistic methods. This paper provides an overview of the EC6 instrumentation and control (I&C) and electrical design specifically related to prevention of severe accidents during station blackouts (SBOs). The I&C and electrical components and devices may include those used in normal operation, those of the safety systems used during design basis accidents, and those added solely for preventing or mitigating severe accidents. They are evaluated by an equipment survivability assessment to demonstrate a reasonable level of assurance for their operability, and a seismic fragility evaluation in consideration of a seismic initiating event. The requirements for the I&C and electrical design for SBOs are developed by reviewing EC6 event sequences leading to SBOs, identifying the available systems, and identifying the actions needed and whether they are manual or automatic, passive or active. Monitoring plays a critical role in the prevention of severe accidents. The correct operation of instrumentation and associated display devices for key parameters is essential in diagnosing the plant state and safety challenges.
