Use of Human Reliability Analysis to evaluate surgical technique for rectal cancer
… In this study the ergonomic principles of human reliability analysis (HRA) were applied to video recordings of rectal cancer surgery. A system of error definition and identification was developed, utilising a bespoke software solution designed for the project. Calculation of optimal camera …

Development of a human factors hazard model for use in system safety analysis
Traditional methods for Human Reliability Analysis (HRA) have been developed with specific applications or industries in mind. Additionally, these methods are often complicated, time consuming, costly to apply, and are not suitable for direct comparison amongst themselves. The proposed Human …

Human Reliability assessment in oil tanker operations
This research is carried out to improve Human Reliability Analysis (HRA) in oil tanker operations in general, to extend and enhance in specific Cognitive Reliability and Error Analysis Method (CREAM), with the aim of reducing human error and thus subsequently preventing oil tanker spills. It is …

Uncertainty and sensitivity analysis of a fire-induced accident scenario involving binary variables and mechanistic codes
… the probability that a fire will be suppressed. Human Reliability Analysis (HRA) is performed to determine the probability that operators will correctly perform manual actions even with the additional complications of a fire present. Fire induced Main Control Room (MCR) abandonment scenarios are …

Randomised cross-over trial assessing the impact of angle, area, distance, curvature, volume, spatial coordinates, and effect of eye exercises in surgical task performance: 2D vs 3D laparoscopic vision
… tests were video recorded and subjected for Human Reliability Analysis (HRA).<br/><br/><b>Results</b>: There was no statistical difference in angle, distance and curvature in 2D versus 3D imaging but there was a statistical difference for square measurement at 7cm, volume measurement at 3ml …
