With constant pressure to reduce maintenance costs as well as short-term budget constraints in a ...changing market environment, asset managers are compelled to continue operating aging assets while deferring maintenance and investment.
This paper discusses some examples where human performance and or human error prediction was achi...eved by using a modified version of the Rasch model(1980), where the probability of a specified outcome is modelled as a logistic function of the difference between the person capacity and item difficulty.
Despite an increase in the process automation, different activities remain mainly operator driven..., as the loading and unloading of tankers, maintenance operations, and so on. In these cases, the activities performed by the operator can be critical, both for the safety and for the product quality. Optimizing the operational procedures is thus a key factor for quality and safety.
