An Analysis of Airport Surface Deviations using the Human Factors Analysis and Classification System (HFACS)
<p>An analysis of accident and incident data from the Federal Aviation Administration Runway Safety database and the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) database was performed to determine causal factors for airport surface deviations over a 12-year period, from January 1, 2001 through …

A Human Factors Analysis and Classification System (HFACS) Approach to Compare Cardiovascular, Orthopedics, Trauma Care, and Neurosurgery
… significant progress in patient safety, human error continues to occur at high rates in procedural settings. Traditional safety models tend to focus on retrospective incident analysis, often overlooking the systemic conditions that allow errors to occur. The Human Factors Analysis and …

Human Error in Commercial Fishing Vessel Accidents: An Investigation Using the Human Factors Analysis and Classification System
… due to the environment, the vessel, the crew, and several external considerations and how they interact with each other. The analysis of fishing vessel accidents can be complicated due to the diverse nature of the industry, including the species caught, the type and size of boat that is …

Nurturing Systems Thinking: Developing a Framework Based on the Human Factors Analysis and Classification System (HFACS) to Improve Systems Development Processes
<p>Large systems engineering projects have an astonishingly high failure rate. The reasons hypothesized for such a high failure rate include the neglect of nonsalient system elements such as social and human or organizational aspects of systems. Social and human factors have long been known to be …

An evaluation of the Aviation Maintenance Climate Assessment Survey (MCAS), applies to the 3rd Marine Air Wing
Faced with aging aircraft and fewer acquisitions, Naval Aviation has redoubled its effort to preserve assets through preventative maintenance and reduction of aircraft mishaps. Eighty percent of all mishaps are due in part to human error, and approximately one out of five major mishaps are due to …

Teamwork Turbulence: Lessons for Multi-Team Systems from a Decade of Aviation Accident Reports
… the industry. Despite decades of aviation safety and team science research, a critical gap remains in understanding one of the most complex aspects of aviation teaming—multi-team systems (MTSs). This work aimed to address this research gap by investigating teamwork breakdowns within the aviation …

A system theoretic safety analysis of U.S. Coast Guard aviation mishap involving CG-6505
During a 22-month period, between 2008 and 2010, the U.S. Coast Guard experienced seven Class-A aviation mishaps resulting in the loss of 14 Coast Guard aviators and seven Coast Guard aircraft. This represents the highest Class-A aviation mishap rate the Coast Guard has experienced in 30 years. …
