Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - In contrast to nuclear plants and aerospace systems, human error is largely ignored in quantitative risk assessment for petroleum and chemical plants. Because of this, current risk analysis methods are able to calculate and predict only about one-third of the accidents happening in practice. Human Error in Process Plant Design and Operations: A Practitioner's Guide shows you how to develop a comprehensive risk assessment that includes human error. Based on the well-known SRK model of human error, this book represents a practical collection of examples and statistics from more than 30 years of study, with many examples of the practical application of methods.The book provides a complete overview of the various types of human error, including operator error, hindrances and inability to function, errors in observation, errors in performing standard procedures, errors in supervisory control, errors in decision making and planning, infractions and violations, design errors, and errors in procedures. It then goes on to identify human error potential and probabilities, and discusses techniques and methodologies that can be implemented to minimize human errors and prevent accidents.The result of the author's observations of human error over a lifetime of work as an operator, as a commissioning coordinator, and as an operations manager, the book demonstrates how to analyse, manage, and mitigate many types of error. By taking advantage of the author's experience and expert knowledge, and by applying the techniques and methodologies illustrated in this book, you will be able to make changes which will make work easier, error free, clearly understood, and more congenial.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Ask ten engineers what caused an incident, and most will say 'human error.' In the industries where a mistake can cost lives, that answer is where the real work should begin - not where it ends. When something goes wrong at a process facility, the reflex is to blame the person at the panel, retrain them, and add one more line to a procedure, while the conditions that made the error likely remain in place, waiting for the next capable operator. The same class of incident returns under a new name, because its true cause was never touched. This handbook offers a better way to think about human performance, and a practical method to match. It treats human error as a symptom of how systems, jobs, and organizations are designed, and it equips you to find and remove the conditions that turn an ordinary slip into a catastrophe, so that safe, reliable operation becomes the outcome the design makes easy. Inside, you will be able to: - Understand why competent, well-trained people make predictable mistakes, and why 'trying harder' is the wrong fix- Analyze tasks and reason honestly about human reliability to find where error is most likely and most costly- Evaluate and improve control rooms, interfaces, and alarm systems so the signals that matter are not lost in noise- Write procedures people can follow under pressure, and judge where automation helps or quietly introduces new risks- Manage workload, fatigue, and shift patterns as measurable contributors to performance- Strengthen situation awareness, communication, and handover, and build the culture and competence that surface problems early Key topics: operator cognition and its limits; error taxonomies and mechanisms; human reliability analysis; task analysis; control-room, workstation, and interface design; alarm management; procedures; automation and function allocation; workload, fatigue, and shift work; situation awareness and decision-making; communication, handover, and teamwork; safety culture; the integration of human factors into process-safety management; and competence, training, and learning from experience. Every chapter includes worked examples, practice problems, and answer keys. Written for: Written for practicing engineers, operations and process-safety professionals, control-room and interface designers, plant and shift managers, and advanced students preparing to take responsibility for hazardous processes. It assumes familiarity with process operations but develops the human-factors science from first principles. Open this handbook and begin developing the knowledge to design out error, support the people at the center of the plant, and operate extraordinary hazards safely.…
