Download or read book S curit des proc d s chimiques Connaissances et m thodes d analyse des risques 2 d written by LAURENT André and published by Lavoisier. This book was released on 2011-08-01 with total page 634 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La maîtrise des risques technologiques et industriels est maintenant une exigence sociétale majeure. En effet à la suite de l'accident AZF à Toulouse, un foisonnement de protocoles et d'applications réglementaires a induit une évolution de la conception du danger et de la notion de risque, qui a conduit au passage d'une évaluation déterministe à une causalité probabiliste. Sécurité des procédés chimiques vise à fournir les outils permettant d'appréhender l'analyse du risque et l'appréciation des conséquences. La terminologie y est actualisée avec les nouveaux termes d'aléa, d'enjeux, d'intensité, de cinétique et de vulnérabilité. Les connaissances de base sont présentées suivant les récentes typologies classiques des caractéristiques des effets des phénomènes de dangers. Outre les méthodes simples et classiques d'analyse des risques (APR - HAZOP - Arbres), l'aspect méthodologique est complété par la présentation de la méthode du nœud papillon et de quelques nouvelles méthodes systémiques intégrées (MOSAR - ARAMIS - LOPA). La démarche de la maîtrise des risques est enrichie d'une revue très complète des concepts de défense en profondeur, de couches de protection, de lignes de défense, de fonctions de sécurité et de différentes barrières rarement proposés simultanément. Enfin, le contenu de l'étude de dangers est décrit d'après la base réglementaire de leur guide d'élaboration. Compte tenu de son approche systémique et pédagogique, ce livre est accessible au débutant tout en répondant aux exigences des spécialistes. Sécurité des procédés chimiques s'adresse donc aussi bien aux ingénieurs, industriels, techniciens, cadres des services publics, des communautés urbaines et des collectivités territoriales, enseignants, chercheurs qu'aux élèves ingénieurs des grandes écoles scientifiques et aux étudiants de licence, master et doctorat des universités…

Download or read book Designing for Human Reliability written by Ronald W. McLeod and published by Gulf Professional Publishing. This book was released on 2015-03-21 with total page 425 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Industry underestimates the extent to which behaviour at work is influenced by the design of the working environment. Designing for Human Reliability argues that greater awareness of the contribution of design to human error can significantly enhance HSE performance and improve return on investment. Illustrated with many examples, Designing for Human Reliability explores why work systems are designed and implemented such that "design-induced human error" becomes more-or-less inevitable. McLeod demonstrates how well understood psychological processes can lead people to make decisions and to take actions that otherwise seem impossible to understand. Designing for Human Reliability sets out thirteen key elements to deliver the levels of human reliability expected to achieve the return on investment sought when decisions are made to invest in projects. And it demonstrates how investigation of the human contribution to incidents can be improved by focusing on what companies expected and intended when they chose to rely on human performance as a barrier, or control, against incidents. - Recognise some 'hard truths' of human performance and learn about the importance of applying the principles of Human Factors Engineering on capital projects - Learn from analysis of real-world incidents how differences between 'fast' and 'slow' styles of thinking can lead to human error in industrial processes - Learn how controls and barrier against major incidents that rely on human performance can be strengthened throughout the design and development of assets and equipment
