  • Patent number: 8880452
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method is provided for performing mishap risk assessment within a system. The method includes providing a first set of data including risk information associated with at least one hazard within the system, correlating all input first set of data with a second set of data defined as a plurality of mishaps of the system such that the hazard correlates with each mishap to assess mishap potential, storing the correlated first and second sets of data, and performing mishap risk assessment within the system based the correlated data including the first and second sets of data.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 31, 2012
    Date of Patent: November 4, 2014
    Assignee: The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the Navy
    Inventors: Michael G. Zemore, Robert C. Heflin, Jr., Shannon S. Jernigan, Charles S. Rozanski, Graham C. Pierson, Kevin G. Stottlar, Regina A. Eller, Gary D. Smoller

  • Patent number: 7162695
    Abstract: A multimedia safety analysis system used for system safety training and as an information repository is disclosed. The training device may be web based and may be simultaneously accessed from a computer server by numerous users or executed by an individual user. The system allows a user to investigate a system safety process and aides in the establishment of their own system safety program. The flow of a comprehensive system safety process is illustrated. Each data element in the process has numerous associated data items (information) that define how to accomplish the task associated with the Data Element including references, definitions, examples, acronyms, and specifications given to illustrate more fully what is needed to accomplish the task.

  • Publication number: 20030233245
    Abstract: A safety analysis process and system are disclosed. The safety analysis evolution includes four phases: safety program definition, detailed safety analysis, safety disposition, and sustained safety engineering. In the safety program definition phase, a safety program is thoroughly defined through the generation of system safety plans and the establishment of the safety team. In the detailed safety analysis phase, the system is thoroughly analyzed using a systematic analysis approach while all engineering data is captured in the unified hazard tracking database. In the safety disposition phase, the safety posture is formally disclosed to safety review officials and operational safety precepts are generated. In the sustained safety engineering phase, the safety efforts are maintained, including maintaining the hazard tracking database and assessing the safety impact of reported problems, proposed engineering changes, maintenance changes, and incident reports.
