Abstract:
Shipping, as an important part of the global supply chain, has always been quite sensitive to maritime accidents. Fatality and injury are important metrics indicating an accident’s severity. Understanding the driving factors of fatality and injury outcomes of maritime accidents can help to improve supply chain security. Based on maritime accident data obtained from the Lloyd’s List Intelligence, this paper identifies accident-prone sea areas through kernel density estimation (KDE) and selects two of the areas to conduct a comparative study on factors contributing to fatality and injury outcomes of maritime accidents through zero-inflated negative binomial (ZINB) and elastic analysis. The results show that collision and ship age significantly impact the number of fatalities and injuries. Specifically, collision and ship age have greater impacts on fatality and injury outcomes of accidents that occurred in the English Channel and North Sea. Whether the accident occurs in ports and whether the accident causes a total loss have more significant impacts on the fatality and injury outcomes of accidents in the Black Sea and the eastern Mediterranean Sea. The research results can potentially support the reduction of fatalities and injuries in maritime accident and help to manage maritime risk.

Abstract:
Abstract Road accidents have presently become an major social worry in India which are increasing year by year. These road accidents lead to loss of human life, injuries and property damage which is very serious concern. As per the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG): 2030 relating to transport infrastructure provision of access to safe, accessible, and sustainable transport is the need of the hour. Therefore, road safety becomes very important issues in today’s scenario. In this paper, road safety analysis was done on NH-103 stretch to identify accident/crash black spots. The accidental data was collected from police stations and visual surveys on two lane NH-103 stretch of 58 km. The analysis has been done by using ranking and severity method, accident severity index (ASI) method and accidental density method. and accidental black spots were indentified. It has been found that 6 accidental crash black spots have been identified namely BS-1, BS-2, BS-3, BS-4, BS-5, and BS-6. The reasons for accidents in these blackspots have been traced to suggest counter measures for reduction in number of accidents on this stretch.

Abstract:
The fire accident of petroleum storage and transportation has the characteristics of difficult disposal, wide range of influence, and a long-term hazard. Many derivative accidents or secondary accidents caused in the emergency process show that there are some potential risk sources in the process of accident emergency disposal. Effectively identifying these potential risk sources is the key for the active protective design in advance, and it is a minimum cost mean to prevent and reduce accident harm. In the paper, from the perspective of analyzing the nature of accident’s development and evolution process, the causal relationship between events is studied based on the accident-causing theory. The event causal chain is built in according with the order of event occurrence. The risk sources of accident are mined and identify from the node of event chain, and the hierarchical identification method oriented accident’s risk sources is established. For accident’s risk sources, the possible design measures in advance can be given from the perspective of principle design, structural design and control design. For design measure’s risk sources in emergency process can be mined by using man-human engineering method, and the graded risk sources identification method oriented secondary accidents is established. Combining the two methods, the hierarchical risk source identification method connected with event causal chain is put forward so as to effectively identify these potential risk sources in emergency process. Finally, oil pipeline explosion accident of dalian’s xinggang harbor on July 16, 2010 is taken as a case to verify the feasibility of proposed method.

Abstract:
Every year the number of vehicles in Indonesia is increasing; this is also directly proportional to the accidents that occur. With the increasing number of victims of vehicle accidents, serious handling is needed. The average number of accident victims who die in Indonesia is three people every hour due to road accidents. Therefore, serious and fast post-accident handling is needed to reduce the number of fatalities due to accidents. The tool's purpose is to maximize post-accident handling, so research is carried out to make an internet-based vehicle accident information tool. The tool that is made can detect the accident's location to speed up post-accident handling using the internet with the latest location information sent and photos of the driver's last condition after the accident. The research method used in this research is Research and Development (R&D) in designing internet-based vehicle accident information tools as a communication medium for sending data, telegram, social media applications, and web servers are used as vehicle monitoring simulations. The accident information system is designed to use a vibration sensor as a trigger and an accelerometer sensor to detect the degree of vehicle tilt. Tests were carried out on tools made and applied directly to vehicles by changing the slope of the vehicle as an accident simulation. The information tool can send the location and photos of the driver's current condition after the accident simulation is detected to telegram and the web server.

Abstract:
BackgroundMortality, including suicide and accidents, is elevated in self-harm populations. Although risk factors for suicide following self-harm are often investigated, rarely have those for accidents been studied. Our aim was to compare risk factors for suicide and accidents.MethodA prospective cohort (n=30 202) from the Multicentre Study of Self-harm in England, 2000–2007, was followed up to 2010 using national death registers. Risk factors for suicide (intentional self-harm and undetermined intent) and accidents (narcotic poisoning, non-narcotic poisoning, and non-poisoning) following the last hospital presentation for self-harm were estimated using Cox models.ResultsDuring follow-up, 1833 individuals died, 378 (20.6%) by suicide and 242 (13.2%) by accidents. Independent predictors of both suicide and accidents were: male gender, age ⩾35 years (except accidental narcotic poisoning) and psychiatric treatment (except accidental narcotic poisoning). Factors differentiating suicide from accident risk were previous self-harm, last method of self-harm (twofold increased risks for cutting and violent self-injury versus self-poisoning) and mental health problems. A risk factor specific to accidental narcotic poisoning was recreational/illicit drug problems, and a risk factor specific to accidental non-narcotic poisoning and non-poisoning accidents was alcohol involvement with self-harm.ConclusionsThe similarity of risk factors for suicide and accidents indicates common experiences of socio-economic disadvantage, life problems and psychopathology resulting in a variety of self-destructive behaviour. Of factors associated with the accidental death groups, those for non-narcotic poisoning and other accidents were most similar to suicide; differences seemed to be related to criteria coroners use in reaching verdicts. Our findings support the idea of a continuum of premature death.

Abstract:
Underreporting of maritime accidents is a problem not only for authorities trying to improve maritime safety through legislation, but also to risk management companies and other entities using maritime casualty statistics in risk and accident analysis. This study has collected and compared casualty data from 01.01.2005 to 31.12.2009, from IHS Fairplay and maritime authorities from Norway, Sweden, Denmark, the United Kingdom, the United States of America, Canada, Greece and the Netherlands. Comparison of data to find common records has been done manually, while estimation of the true number of occurred accidents has been done by using conditional probability given positive dependency between data sources, several variations of the capture-recapture method (Lincoln-Petersen, Chapman and Chao), calculation of the best case scenario, assuming perfect reporting, and finally scaling up a subset of casualty information from Ceforʼs Nordic Marine Insurance Statistics Database. Estimated upper limit reporting performance for the selected flag states range from 7% (Greece) to 74% (Canada), while the estimated coverage of IHS Fairplay ranges from 4% (USA) to 62% (Canada). This study has found that on average, across the board, the amount of accidents that go unreported make up roughly 50% of all occurred accidents. Even in a best case scenario, only a few flag states come close to perfect reporting (Sweden, 94%). Based on the authorʼs assessment of the data quality from the flag state authorities, most emphasis should be placed on the results for Norway (41% of accidents are not reported), The United Kingdom (56% of accidents are not reported) and Canada (10% of accidents are not reported). This study not only proves, by the fact that some casualty data are exclusively in only one database, that underreporting exists, but also that it is a major problem. The best flag state in this study, Canada, is missing roughly a quarter of all accidents occurring in their area of responsibility. Norway and The United Kingdom covers just over a third of all occurred accidents in their area of responsibility, despite these flag state authoritiesʼ high level of perceived competency and quality. The large amount of underreporting uncovered by this study, indicates that all users of statistical data should assume a certain amount of underreporting, and adjust their analyses accordingly. Whether they use a correction factor, safety margin or rely more heavily on expert judgement, must be decided on a case by case basis, as inaccurate basic data most often will have a significant impact on the end result.     Keywords: Maritime accidents, risk analysis, underreporting, accident statistics, capture-recapture.

Abstract:
Pedestrian fatalities and injuries resulting from traffic accidents cause immeasurable personal suffering and an immense economic loss. The comparison of international accident statistics indicates that pedestrian safety has improved in highly developed countries while the situation in developing countries is still serious. The majority of pedestrians involved in road accidents get harmed in collisions with motorised vehicles, especially with passenger cars. In spite of a wide variety of existing countermeasures promising innovations are not feasible due to the lack of drivers’ willingness to pay. To overcome this problem, authorities like the European Union have successfully implemented directives setting safety standards for new cars. Although the benefits of such legislative and encouraging countermeasures are undoubted, the practical relevance of the test procedures is heavily contended. In-depth accident investigation like IMPAIR analyses single pedestrian accidents from an interdisciplinary perspective and yields a better understanding of the accident occurrence and kinematics. In combination with macroscopic approaches, the results of in-depth analyses enable an advancement of directives and legislations and offer valuable starting points for further studies to increase pedestrian safety. Keywords: pedestrian-car collision, accident statistics, countermeasures, directives, encouragement, interdisciplinary investigation

Abstract:
Accident causation has been differently approached and evaluated in the last decades. This thesis studies four large accidents in the Norwegian railway organization, i.e. the Tretten accident, the Nordstrand accident, the Åsta accident and the Alnabru/Sjursøya accident. Accident causation was investigated by systematically reviewing and comparing the respective accidents‟ evaluation reports to three dominant accident research theories: The Energy and Barrier theory, the Man-made Disaster theory and the Normal Accident theory. It is concluded that the development of the accident evaluation reports throughout a time period of 35 years initially developed from simple cause-effect relationships implemented mainly by local technical safety barriers to more recent strategies including an increasing number of indirect causes with following recommendations within non-technical areas, as communication processes and management strategies. The official accident reports evaluating the Tretten and the Nordstrand accidents focused on the immediate failures leading to the accidents. The two latter reports, evaluating the Åsta and Alnabru/Sjursøya accidents emphasized to a larger degree the indirect causes contributing to the accidents, as well as the decisive failures. From a theoretical point of view it is concluded that the stated causation with attached recommendations characterizing the Åsta and Alnabru/Sjursøya accidents provided a higher organizational learning potential than the stated causation of the Tretten and the Nordstrand accidents. This conclusion is mainly based upon the limited and narrow view of causation and recommendations in the available evaluation reports after the Tretten and Nordstrand accidents. After the Åsta and Alnabru/Sjursøya accidents, the respective Commission of inquiry presented a specific as well as general view, relating the causation, and recommendations, for the future to several levels in the organization. However, if indirect causation and following recommendations are too broad, difficulties might arise locating the failures and implementing corrections. From a theoretical perspective, indirect causation enhances organizational learning, but it may also lead to abstract and broader recommendations which are harder to implement in the system due to modern organization‟s continuous increase in complexity of components and interactions. It is concluded that to ensure enhanced organizational learning accident evaluation has to be more specifically adapted to organizational structures, i.e. adapted to both the formal and informal structures of an organization as well as focused on the practical consequences of the implementations.

Full text
Abstract:
Identified the factors that cause pipeline failures and the factors that affect accidents on hazardous liquid pipelines. Since the normalizing of the data was not possible, the authors of this report used indirect and inferential approaches in the analysis. The databases used for this analysis are LIQUID (accident data for 1968-1985) and L1QLCK (accident data for 1985-present). The main finding of this report is that better and more complete data on hazardous liquid accidents should be collected. Other conclusions are that prevention programs should be more effective, and pipe components such as valves, O-rings, gaskets, and nipples are a significant source of potentially reducible accidents.

Abstract:
In the US, over 38,000 people die in road crashes each year, and 2.35 million are injured or disabled, according to the statistics report from the Association for Safe International Road Travel (ASIRT) in 2020. In addition, traffic congestion keeping Americans stuck on the road wastes millions of hours and billions of dollars each year. Using statistical techniques and machine learning algorithms, this research developed accurate predictive models for traffic congestion and road accidents to increase understanding of the complex causes of these challenging issues. The research used US Accidents data consisting of 49 variables describing 4.2 million accident records from February 2016 to December 2020, as well as logistic regression, tree-based techniques such as Decision Tree Classifier and Random Forest Classifier (RF), and Extreme Gradient boosting (XG-boost) to process and train the models. These models will assist people in making smart real-time transportation decisions to improve mobility and reduce accidents.

Abstract:
As modern machine learning systems become more widely used, the potential costs of malfunctions grow. This policy brief describes how trends we already see today—both in newly deployed artificial intelligence systems and in older technologies—show how damaging the AI accidents of the future could be. It describes a wide range of hypothetical but realistic scenarios to illustrate the risks of AI accidents and offers concrete policy suggestions to reduce these risks.
