Download or read book Reliability and Safety In Hazardous Work Systems written by Berlin Bernhard Wilpert Technische Universitaet and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2013-05-24 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume contains a selection of original contributions from internationally reputed scholars in the field of risk management in socio?technical systems with high hazard potential. Its first major section addresses fundamental psychological and socio?technical concepts in the field of risk perception, risk management and learning systems for safety improvement. The second section deals with the variety of procedures for system safety analysis. It covers strategies of analyzing automation problems and of safety culture as well as the analysis of social dynamics in field settings and of field experiments. Its third part then illustrates the utilization of basic concepts and analytic approaches by way of case studies of designing man?machine systems and in various industrial sectors such as intensive care wards, aviation, offfshore oil drilling and chemical industry. In linking basic theoretical conceptual notions and analytic strategies to detailed case studies in the area of hazardous work organizations the volume differs from and complements more theoretical works such as Human Error (J. Reason, 1990) and more general approaches such as New Technologies and Human Error (J. Rasmussen, K. Duncan, J. Leplat, Eds.)
Download or read book Asset Management for Sustainable Nuclear Power Plant Operation written by IAEA and published by International Atomic Energy Agency. This book was released on 2021-03-10 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Asset management plays an important role in maintaining the competitiveness of nuclear power plants in a challenging and changing electricity market. The value of effective asset management is in providing support to those making decisions seeking the optimum level of financial performance, operational performance and risk exposure. This publication provides information on various methodologies, good practices and approaches to manage assets in nuclear power plants currently in operation or in other operational nuclear facilities. Information relevant to new build and decommissioning environments is also provided.
Download or read book On line Monitoring for Improving Performance of Nuclear Power Plants written by International Atomic Energy Agency and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 69 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report extends the application of on-line monitoring to equipment and process condition monitoring, encompassing an array of technologies including vibration monitoring, acoustic monitoring, loose parts monitoring, motor current signature analysis and noise diagnostics, as well as vibration analysis of the reactor core and the primary circuit. Furthermore, this report includes the application of modeling technologies for equipment and process condition monitoring. A majority of these technologies depend on existing data from existing sensors and first principles models to estimate equipment and process behavior using empirical and physical modeling techniques. In doing so, pattern recognition tools such as neural networks, fuzzy classification of data, multivariate state estimation and other means are used. These means are described in the report, and examples of their application and implementation are provided. The benefits of OLM for performance verification of process instruments were described in the first report and included such advantages as the ability to extend the calibration interval of pressure, level and flow transmitters, detection of blockages, voids and leaks in pressure sensing lines, detection of degradation of the dynamic response of process instruments, and the like. Examples of benefits of OLM for condition monitoring include: (1) the ability to determine the onset of failure of pumps, valves, motors and reactor vessel components; (2) residual life assessment of equipment; (3) equipment life extension and aging management; (4) the ability to establish objective schedules for preventive maintenance, equipment refurbishment or replacement; and (5) maintenance cost reduction, efficiency improvements, reduction of plant outages, and reduction of radiation exposure to plant personnel.--Publisher's description.

Download or read book Integrated Approach to Optimize Operation and Maintenance Costs for Operrating Nuclear Power Plants written by International Atomic Energy Agency and published by IAEA. This book was released on 2006 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The increasingly competitive environment of the electricity sector has significant implications for nuclear power plant (NPP) operations. Management objectives must be focused on efficient operation as the key to profitability. The business and financial success of operating NPPs must be given greater consideration through an integrated approach which also ensures the successful achievement of safety and reliability objectives. In developing strategic and operational goals, nuclear plant managers will be required to embrace and articulate clear and measurable business objectives and goals which not only assure the achievement of safety and reliability but also eliminate unnecessary costs and identify investment opportunities. This publication looks at the optimization of the costs as an integrated part of the management of organization business process with a focus on planning (strategic and tactical) and on controlling (control system, corrective actions and pay reward) functions.--Publisher's description.

This book was released on 2008 with total page 109 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On-line monitoring techniques have been under development over the past two decades for a variety of applications in process and power industries. In the nuclear power industry, on-line monitoring techniques have been considered for instrument calibration verification as well as equipment and plant condition monitoring. This publication reviews the state of the art in on-line equipment monitoring for nuclear power plant (NPP) applications. Its focus is on instrument calibration verification and extension of calibration intervals of sensors, transmitters and channels. This publication also includes reviews of regulatory positions on this subject and provides examples of implementation of on-line monitoring techniques in NPPs. Furthermore, the in-situ methods for verifying the dynamic performance and response time of process instrumentation are reviewed.--Publisher's description.
