Abstract

Accident causation models can provide a framework to explain how an accident occurs from various perspectives. In the past, human error has become the main cause of accidents, which is inextricably linked with safety information cognition (SIC). In this study, an accident causation model—SIC-based Accident-causing Model (SICAM) is developed and then a new human reliability analysis methodology—SIC-based human factor analysis (SICHFA) is provided. Three steps are followed to construct the model. First, the role of SIC in the safety information flow (SIF) has been confirmed. Secondly, the mechanism of accident causation based on SIC were addressed, the effect of negative signal noise mainly involved. Thirdly, the influence objects of signal noise on the SIC process (SICP) were classified at information home, cognitive environment, and cognitive object. To demonstrate the viability of SICAM & SICHFA, the electrical fire, which occurred frequently and resulted in serious adverse social impact in recent years, was selected as the case in this study. Results showed that the proposed accident causation model and SICHFA can provide a new approach for preventing & predicting human accidents.
