  9. 2. Risk Assessment Procedure Railway Risk Assessment Procedure Hazard Identification Defining the Initiating Hazardous Events Development of Accident Scenarios Casual Analysis Consequence Analysis Railway Accident Progress Scenarios Railway Accident Appearance Scenarios Hazardous Events FTA Model ETA Model Risk Evaluation & Reduction

  10. 3. Hazard Identification using Railway Accident Scenarios Hazard Identification Procedure Setting up objective of hazard identification & its boundary System definition and boundary setting Including the definition of measures which stops the increases of accident Identifying hazardous events/ hazards/ barriers Defining relationships among hazardous events, hazards and barriers. Developing accident appearance scenarios Considering the relevant key influential factors. Developing accident progress scenarios Drawing up hazard log. Accident scenario management

  11. 3. Hazard Identification using Railway Accident Scenarios System & Boundary Definition Typical railway system configuration proposed in SAMRAIL project • According to the accident classification of “Railway Accident Report Regulation”, • The scenarios were divided into the five main areas • 1) Train collision accident, • 2) Train derailment accident, • 3) Train fire accident, • 4) Level crossing accident, • 5) Railway (traffic/safety) casualty accident.

  12. 3. Hazard Identification using Railway Accident Scenarios Hazardous Event Identification

  13. 3. Hazard Identification using Railway Accident Scenarios Railway Accident AppearanceScenario Built up by classifying properly the immediate causes and underlying causes. •Immediate Causes: conditions which immediately cause hazardous events - Substandard Act: Substandard acts/behavior of who can cause hazardous events - Substandard Conditions: Physical conditions which can cause hazardous events •Underlying Causes: reason or source of substandard acts and conditions - Human Management Factors - Technological Factors - External Factors

  14. 3. Hazard Identification using Railway Accident Scenarios Underlying Causes Immediate Causes Hazardous Event Railway Accident AppearanceScenario

  15. 3. Hazard Identification using Railway Accident Scenarios Railway Accident Scenario Critical factors influencing accident severity were identified in the accident progress scenarios” Example of the Accident Progress Scenarios

  16. 4. Risk Assessment Model Development Risk Measure Method Risk assessment model : the form of a cause and consequence analysis : using fault trees and event trees. Collective Risk (Average Number of FWI/year) = Frequency (Average frequency at which the scenario sequence occurs) X Consequences (the number of FWI/scenario sequence) 1 FWI = 1 fatality = 10 major injuries = 200 minor injuries

  17. 4. Risk Assessment Model Development Data Population • Industry safety data: safety related incidents within industry database. • Incidents recorded range from train collisions to passenger burns from coffee spills • Many thousands of recordsare reviewed and classified • Where data was not available, • Use was made of: • - Human error probability assessments • : using a revised Human Error Assessment and Reduction Technique (HEART) • - Safety expert judgment from in-house expertise within Korea railway. • - Statistical methods including Monte Carlo simulation and Bayesian uncertainty distributions.

  19. 4. Risk Assessment Model Development Web-Based Accident Analysis Subsystem • Application running on the web • One purpose is to provide • - Fundamental information for an in-depth risk assessment of railway accidents • - Information on railway safety performance levels to both assessors and the public • This system is composed of three modules • 1) Accident input module. • 2) Accident analysis & statistics module • 3) Hazard management module. Environment Analysis Accident Analysis Accident Statistic Analysis

  20. 4. Risk Assessment Model Development Risk Analysis Subsystem • Windows-based application • Dedicated railway risk assessment software package • - Event Tree Analysis, Fault Tree Analysis, Risk Evaluation, Human Factor Analysis • The risk of the railway systems can be assessed by the ET/FT linking approach • - Accident progress scenarios: defined as event trees, using an event tree editor. • - Each branch of the accident progress sequences requires one or more supplementary fault trees, • which can be developed by a fault tree editor. • - Sum of the frequency of each sequence becomes the total frequency of the accident of concern. Event Tree Editor View ET/FT Linking approach Fault Tree Editor View

  21. 4. Risk Assessment Model Development Railway Human Reliability Analysis (R-HRA)Module • Supporting the analysts in analyzing potential human errors • Used under the railway risk assessment framework • Computer software developed for aiding the R-HRA process. • Revised R-HRA method supplementing the original R-HRA method developed by RSSB • Providing a specific task analysis guideline and a classification of performance shaping • factors (PSFs) General Information Input Error Analysis & Quantification Reporting Results

  22. 4. Risk Assessment Model Development Railway Accident Risk Assessment Results • Railway accident data until 2005 year on the main line of South Korea • Train operation on the main line fully carried out by Korea Railroad Corp.. • The total risk: 217 FWI per year • The overall risk made up from different profiles of frequency and consequences. • Railway casualty accident • : Tend to consist of high frequency low consequence type events (slips, trips and falls) • Train accidents • : Tend to have a risk contribution from the low frequency high consequence type events • : Increase the risk contribution for the hazardous events above the level seen in practice.

  23. 4. Risk Assessment Model Development Future Development of the Risk Model The model is being prepared currently and will include: • Feasibility and uncertainty test in the results of the developed model • Improved level of human factors modeling • Use of more sophisticated statistical analysis techniques

  24. 5. Conclusion • This study has proposed • Developing procedure of the risk models for the Korea railway • Application of their application to the Korea railway • The developed model will provide a generic model of the safety risk on the Korea railway • Which will • Increase the industry’s knowledge of the risk from the operation and maintenance • Allow the identification of areas of railway operation that need further risk controls • Allow sensitivity analyses to be carried out to determine the risk reduction • Allow cost benefit analysis of proposed changes
