The National Shipbuilding Research Program. 1997 Ship Production Symposium, Paper Number 15: Risk Analysis and Marine Industry Standards

Abstract

Although the relation of risk and standards is not new, its definition is still unclear. The authors show how a framework established at the University of Maryland for the use of risk-based technology (RBT) methods in maritime regulatory activities could close the gap between risk and maritime industry standards. The authors will consider only one of the system performance characteristics -safety. Although other elements of system performance are equally important, their assessments could be accomplished using a similar framework and risk determination techniques.
