Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study compared both traditional and empirical Bayes methodologies for ranking high hazard locations and evaluating highway safety treatments for five case studies. The case studies were either based on data collected for previous studies or data retrieved from the Highway Safety Information System (HSIS). These included two high hazard location ranking studies for New York and Illinois and three treatment evaluation studies: Michigan raised pavement markers, Michigan change in posted speeds, and Minnesota traffic signal installation. In addition, an extended empirical Bayes methodology was developed that allows for the use of explanatory variables (covariates) in a regression model along with a computer program for its implementation. The explanatory variables used in these case studies were roadway characteristics such as curvature, pavement width, shoulders, divided highway, and initial posted speed. The regression methodology also allowed for the examination of a nonlinear relationship between vehicle-miles traveled (VMT) and accidents.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study developed a new, better procedure for assessing widespread geographic effects resulting from the use of safety treatments. Most currently used statistical methods for countermeasure evaluation assess the spot or local changes that result from the new treatment. The effects of the treatment on the entire system or near-by contiguous links are seldom evaluated. The new approach is ideal for applications where large quantities of data reside in a PC computer format. Incorporated in the methodology are known procedures for determining if regression-to-the-mean (RTM) problems exist and how those problems can be minimized when they are present. A previous research study developed a computer program - Bayesian Estimation of Accidents in Transportation Studies (BEATS) - that identifies and corrects RTM bias in highway safety studies. Step-by-step guidelines were developed on how to plan and use the new procedure to evaluate highway safety studies. The guidelines describe what are adequate sample sizes, how to identify RTM problems, and how computerized data analysis procedures can be used.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an overview of, and practical guidance on, the range of human factors (HF) methods that can be used for the purposes of accident analysis and investigation in complex sociotechnical systems. Human Factors Methods and Accident Analysis begins with an overview of different accident causation models and an introduction to the concepts of accident analysis and investigation. It then presents a discussion focussing on the importance of, and difficulties associated with, collecting appropriate data for accident analysis purposes. Following this, a range of HF-based accident analysis methods are described, as well as step-by-step guidance on how to apply them. To demonstrate how the different methods are applied, and what the outputs are, the book presents a series of case study applications across a range of safety critical domains. It concludes with a chapter focussing on the data challenges faced when collecting, coding and analysing accident data, along with future directions in the area. Human Factors Methods and Accident Analysis is the first book to offer a practical guide for investigators, practitioners and researchers wishing to apply accident analysis methods. It is also unique in presenting a series of novel applications of accident analysis methods, including HF methods not previously used for these purposes (e.g. EAST, critical path analysis), as well as applications of methods in new domains.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Human error is implicated in nearly all aviation accidents, yet most investigation and prevention programs are not designed around any theoretical framework of human error. Appropriate for all levels of expertise, the book provides the knowledge and tools required to conduct a human error analysis of accidents, regardless of operational setting (i.e. military, commercial, or general aviation). The book contains a complete description of the Human Factors Analysis and Classification System (HFACS), which incorporates James Reason's model of latent and active failures as a foundation. Widely disseminated among military and civilian organizations, HFACS encompasses all aspects of human error, including the conditions of operators and elements of supervisory and organizational failure. It attracts a very broad readership. Specifically, the book serves as the main textbook for a course in aviation accident investigation taught by one of the authors at the University of Illinois. This book will also be used in courses designed for military safety officers and flight surgeons in the U.S. Navy, Army and the Canadian Defense Force, who currently utilize the HFACS system during aviation accident investigations. Additionally, the book has been incorporated into the popular workshop on accident analysis and prevention provided by the authors at several professional conferences world-wide. The book is also targeted for students attending Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University which has satellite campuses throughout the world and offers a course in human factors accident investigation for many of its majors. In addition, the book will be incorporated into courses offered by Transportation Safety International and the Southern California Safety Institute. Finally, this book serves as an excellent reference guide for many safety professionals and investigators already in the field.
