Accident analysis models are crucial tools for understanding and preventing accidents in the maritime industry. Despite advances ship technology regulatory frameworks, human factors remain a leading cause of marine accidents. The complexity behavior, influenced by social, technical, psychological aspects, makes accident challenging. Various methods used to analyze accidents, but no single approach is universally chosen use as most effective. Traditional often emphasize errors, technical failures, mechanical breakdowns. However, hybrid models, which combine different approaches, increasingly recognized providing more accurate predictions addressing multiple causal factors. In this study, dynamic model based on Human Factors Analysis Classification System (HFACS) Bayesian Networks proposed predict estimate risks narrow waterways. utilizes past data expert judgment assess potential ships encounter when navigating these confined areas. Uniquely, enables prediction probabilities under varying operational conditions, offering practical applications such real-time risk estimation vessels before entering Istanbul Strait. By insights, supports traffic operators implementing preventive measures enter high-risk zones. results study can serve decision-support system not only VTS operators, shipmasters, company representatives also national international stakeholders industry, aiding both probability development measures.

This study provides a systematic risk assessment approach for chemical tanker loading operations, focusing on high-risk scenario identified through operational data from model vessel. To address the complexities of transportation, hybrid methodology combining Methodology Identification Major Accident Hazards (MIMAH) and Fuzzy Bayesian Network (FBN) analysis was developed. MIMAH's structured framework systematically identifies critical events using Bow-Tie (BT) diagram, integrating Fault Tree (FT) Event (ET) providing thorough breakdown potential accident pathways. BT structure converted into (BN) to improve probability estimations by incorporating conditional dependencies expert-driven fuzzy logic, particularly where historical limited. The further employed dual-method sensitivity analysis, Fussell-Vesely (FV) importance measures Improvement Index (II), identify improvement-prone basic (BEs). Key findings highlight dominance human error in events, manifold connection failures incorrect valve alongside mechanical vulnerabilities with significant improvement potential. extends ARAMIS principles maritime contexts, reliability-based fuzzy-based estimation methods detailed adaptable that enhances safety resilience hazardous transport.

Subsea pipeline system faces significant challenges in practical engineering applications, including complexity, environmental variability, and limited historical data. These factors complicate the accurate estimation of component failure rates, leading to fault polymorphism inherent uncertainty. To address these challenges, this study proposes a reliability analysis method based on Fuzzy Polymorphic Bayesian Network (FPBN). The approach utilizes multi-state tree construct polymorphic (BN), integrating traditional BN techniques with consideration multiple states fuzzy rates. This extension allows network handle uncertainties such as imprecise data unclear logical relationships. is applied subsea risk by developing model. Through quantitative analysis, probability calculated. Reverse diagnosis then conducted determine posterior probabilities root nodes identify vulnerabilities. results demonstrate that FPBN effectively addresses ambiguity uncertainty providing robust framework applications.

In response to the increasing frequency of maritime traffic accidents along China’s coast, this study develops an accident-cause analysis framework that integrates optimized Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers (BERT) with a Long Short-Term Memory network (BiLSTM), combined Apriori association rule algorithm. Systematic performance comparisons demonstrate BERT + BiLSTM architecture achieves superior unstructured-text-processing capability, attaining 89.8% accuracy in classification. The hybrid enables comprehensive investigation complex interactions among human factors, vessel characteristics, environmental conditions, and management practices through multidimensional accident reports. Our findings identify improper operations, fatigue-related issues, illegal modifications, inadequate as primary high-risk factors while revealing multi-factor interaction patterns significantly influence severity. Compared traditional single-factor methods, proposed shows marked improvements Natural Language Processing (NLP) efficiency, classification precision, systematic interpretation cross-factor correlations. This integrated approach provides authorities scientific evidence develop targeted prevention strategies optimize safety systems, thereby enhancing governance coastline.

Abstract In this paper, we assert that the process safety risks vary based on identity of stakeholders involved, for example, employees, management, regulators, community members, insurance companies, and environment. These differ in perceptions, magnitudes, ramifications across an array stakeholders. Hence, risk assessment taken from a single perspective, as is often case, inadequate perhaps misleading. Instead, more realistic approach multi‐perspective by considering interactions existing among different perspectives building concurrent compatible models explicitly. This marks first innovation current research work. The second centers hybrid nature analysis. We recognize distinction between impacting human well‐being affecting facilities, properties, capital assets, introduces safety‐facility to address types risks. Still, developing multiple represent complex, time‐consuming, tedious, very costly. addition, results may become incompatible, confusing To avoid such difficulties, comprehensive model developed initially, which, while impractical itself, allows extraction practical perspective‐based through reduction. methodology was illustrated validated examining city gas pressure reduction station 12 perspectives, illustrating highlighting necessity accurate However, widely applicable areas, not limited gate (CGS).
