Course Description
This a new methodology for learning from major disasters and driving change in industry safety. It explores the root cause of disasters and various preventive measures. It also links theory with practice in regard to risk, safety and reliability analysis. It uses analytical techniques originating from reliability analysis of equipment failures, multiple criteria decisions making and artificial intelligence domains.
The case studies of major failures and disasters are intended to be from different industries such as oil and gas, nuclear power generation, aviation, marine, and process industries. It focuses on a number of well-known case studies including: The Titanic, the BP Texas City Incident, the Chernobyl Disaster, the NASA Space Shuttle Columbia Accident, the Bhopal Disaster, the Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant Disaster, and the Concorde Accident. This includes many examples for modeling and decision analysis.
