Book Risk and Reliability in Marine Technology

Download or read book Risk and Reliability in Marine Technology written by C. Soares Guedes and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 1998-01-01 with total page 600 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Experience has shown that introducing risk analysis in the initial phases of any design often has important beneficial effects on both safety and economy. It has also become well accepted that structural design can occur on a sounder basis if the concepts of structural reliability are applied, in that they provide a consistent base to deal with uncertainties and to establish safety factors. Finally the operational cost of running installations depends very much on the maintenance policies applied and these in turn can translate their efficiency in terms of reliability of the systems that are maintained. The mathematical tools available to deal with these different types of problems are are somewhat different, but they have several common features. The main one is the use of probalistic models to predict the probability of failure or its complement reliability. This book explores the complementarity that exists among these different types of formulations, by presenting an overall view of the tools that can be used in the phase of conceptual design, of detail design and in the operational phase. Emphasis is on Marine Technology in that most of the applications presented are related either to offshore platforms or to ships. However, the applicability of the methods presented is not restricted to this field. In particular, the contributions on reliability of systems are very general and applicable to any type of system repairable or non-repairable. The work is broadly organised in three sections dealing with risk assessment, structural reliability and system reliability. In the first section the main methods of quantitative risk analysis are presented together with case studies that provide an illustration of how they can be applied. The section on structural reliability presents the probalistic formulations that are required for the reliability assessment of the marine structures. The last section deals with reliability of systems, a formulation that is essential for the different types of equipment existing in ship and offshore platforms. Contributions are by a group of international experts in the field.

Book Online Probabilistic Risk Assessment of Complex Marine Systems

Download or read book Online Probabilistic Risk Assessment of Complex Marine Systems written by Tarannom Parhizkar and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-11-26 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book proposes a new approach to dynamic and online risk assessment of automated and autonomous marine systems, taking into account different environmental and operational conditions. The book presents lessons learnt from dynamic positioning incidents and accidents, and discusses the challenges of risk assessment of complex systems. The book begins by introducing dynamic and online risk assessment, before presenting automated and autonomous marine systems, as well as numerous dynamic positioning incidents. It then discusses human interactions with technology and explores how to quantify human error. Dynamic probabilistic risk assessment and online risk assessment are both considered fully, including case studies with the application of assisting operators in decision making in emergency situations. Finally, areas for future research are suggested. This practical volume offers tools and methodologies to help operators make better decisions and improve the safety of automated and autonomous marine systems. It provides a guideline for researchers and practitioners to perform dynamic probabilistic and online risk assessment, which also should be applicable to other complex systems outside the marine and maritime domain, such as nuclear power plants, chemical processes, autonomous transport systems, and space shuttles.

This book was released on 2013-10-17 with total page 461 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contemporary time has seen alarming environmental revolt that is calls for attention and concern about the biosphere world, a condition that calls for need to use advantage of human improved knowledge and civilization in science engineering to develop proactive, efficient and predictive based system that meet reliability and sustainability requirement as well to reduce uncertainty components of system design. Proactive based philosophy under safety and environmental framework should be exercise on all level of system life cycle, including design, construction, operation and disposal. Selection of all element of the life cycle should be responsibly done and pollution impact of the system to the environment and community should be mitigated. The book present application of risk and reliability analysis to various cases of marine system and subsystem, application of risk method ranging from qualitative, quantitative to simulation and analytical approach is presented.

Book Technology and Safety of Marine Systems

Download or read book Technology and Safety of Marine Systems written by J. Wang and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2003-07-22 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traditionally society has regulated hazardous industries by detailed references to engineering codes, standards and hardware requirements. These days a risk-based approach is adopted. Risk analysis involves identifying hazards, categorizing the risks, and providing the necessary decision support to determine the necessary arrangements and measures to reach a "safe" yet economical operating level. When adopting such an approach the abundance of techniques available to express risk levels can often prove confusing and inadequate. This highly practical guide to safety and risk analysis in Marine Systems not only adds to the current techniques available, but more importantly identifies instances where traditional techniques fall short. Uncertainties that manifest within risk analysis are highlighted and alternative solutions presented. In addition to risk analysis techniques this book addresses influencing elements including: reliability, Maintenance Decision making and Human error. The highly practical approach of this title ensures it is accessible to the widest possible audience

Book Offshore Structural Engineering

Download or read book Offshore Structural Engineering written by Srinivasan Chandrasekaran and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2017-12-19 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Successfully estimate risk and reliability, and produce innovative, yet reliable designs using the approaches outlined in Offshore Structural Engineering: Reliability and Risk Assessment. A hands-on guide for practicing professionals, this book covers the reliability of offshore structures with an emphasis on the safety and reliability of offshore facilities during analysis, design, inspection, and planning. Since risk assessment and reliability estimates are often based on probability, the author utilizes concepts of probability and statistical analysis to address the risks and uncertainties involved in design. He explains the concepts with clear illustrations and tutorials, provides a chapter on probability theory, and covers various stages of the process that include data collection, analysis, design and construction, and commissioning. In addition, the author discusses advances in geometric structural forms for deep-water oil exploration, the rational treatment of uncertainties in structural engineering, and the safety and serviceability of civil engineering and other offshore structures. An invaluable guide to innovative and reliable structural design, this book: Defines the structural reliability theory Explains the reliability analysis of structures Examines the reliability of offshore structures Describes the probabilistic distribution for important loading variables Includes methods of reliability analysis Addresses risk assessment and more Offshore Structural Engineering: Reliability and Risk Assessment provides an in-depth analysis of risk analysis and assessment and highlights important aspects of offshore structural reliability. The book serves as a practical reference to engineers and students involved in naval architecture, ocean engineering, civil/structural, and petroleum engineering.
