5.1 Typology of human reliability assessment methods
Because of the importance of human intervention in industrial plants, numerous operational safety studies based on probabilistic human reliability assessment (PHRA) and human factors (HF) have been developed since the 1960s. There are currently over 70 methods . Based on advances in human operator error knowledge, three main families of methods have emerged:
the first family of methods is based on predominantly...
