Experimental Analysis of 31 Risk Estimation Tools Applied to Safety of Machinery

摘要: This article studies differences in the results of using different risk estimation tools same hazardous situations involving dangerous machinery. We investigated how (a) types parameters and methods constructing tools, (b) number levels each parameter, (c) influence results. Consequently, 31 were compared by them to estimate associated with 20 situations. Risk appears be tool-dependent, as give identical The scope tool, its use, construction could explain these differences. also proposes a series rules for alleviate many problems variability estimations.
