Survey And Evaluation

The authors introduce a comprehensive survey and evaluation of presently available data sources in nuclear power plants. A newly developed classification format for human related events is proposed. The format presents all necessary information in a coded form to support human reliability analysis and the assessment of performance shaping factors. Recommendations are given for improving data sources to facilitate the evaluation of man-machine interfaces and human performance in nuclear power plants.

Error Probabilities

Two techniques useful for the simulation and analysis of human performance in tasks involving nuclear power plant operation, maintenance and testing are evaluated. The SAINT and THERP techniques are compared with respect to their relevance to conducting task analysis, estimation of human error probabilities and accounting for performance shaping factors in nuclear power plants. The results show that the SAINT is more flexible and has promising features for human engineering studies of complex systems when compared to the static THERP technique currently used in nuclear safety analysis.
