There is growing concern globally over issues of aviationsafety. Awareness of previous failures and their causes isone of the most important factors in determining risks and hazardsin any new operational systems. This requires experience ofaccidents and failures across a broad spectrum of complex systems.Every accident occurs as a result of a chain of errors, and ifone of the 'links' making up that chain can be broken,the accident might be prevented - and becomes merely an'incident'. If you collect detailed data from a rangeof 'incidents', relating to how they occurred, anddevelop a consistent method for analysing that data, you can createa potentially valuable resource to assist in accidentprevention.
This interesting publication proposes an original and structuredapproach to accident prevention. In an interesting and readablecollection of accounts of major accidents, drawn mainly from theaviation industry, the author investigates incident reportsanalytically and reveals the critical information hidden thereinthat could avert a full-blown accident or disaster. She applies aninnovative analytical technique - multi-dimensional analysis ofincident reports (MAIR), using a particular model (QuantificationMethod III) to validate the results and focus upon individualcomponents identified within the causal chain of events thatprecede an accident. She advocates wider acceptance and use of IRAS(Incident Report Analysing System), ideally administered by aneutral and independent body, to help prevent accidents not only inaviation but in relation to all complex systems, such as nuclearpower plants.
This comprehensive text offers aviation industry personnel, aswell as those involved more generally with safety, risk assessment,and accident prevention in other industries, an inclusiveunderstanding of the accident causation chain, events contributingto that chain, and a method for identifying and eliminating causalfactors in a pro-active
