So these Accidents can be pre vented and reduced through analyzing human errors affecting factors. This paper has made elaborate analysis of the relative affecting factors which cause human errors through applying the Gray Relational Theory in coal mine accidents. Based upon this specific analysis, by comparing statistics data of affecting factors to mine accidents, a relevant reliability analysis method has been come up with in this paper. Based on the analyzing results, the key factors, which affect human errors, are ordered according to their importance. Finally, the corresponding method is put forwards to reduce human errors in coal mine accidents according to the analyzing result.","PeriodicalId":285694,"journal":{"name":"2010 IEEE International Conference on Industrial Engineering and Engineering Management","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-12-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114922853","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The problem-identification workshop, which is a macroergonomic tool for enhancing the management of work environment in an organization, was tested in an organization. Participants identified organizational problems, proposed solutions to them, realistically assessed the desirability and possibility of these solutions, and finally recommended action plans to the organization for its short-term, intermediate and long-term design and management of effective work environment towards enhancing work life and productivity in the organization. It was concluded that problem-identification workshop is a good socio-pedagogic method that can be used as an intelligent participatory intervention tool by managers in organizations in the management of their work environments.","PeriodicalId":285694,"journal":{"name":"2010 IEEE International Conference on Industrial Engineering and Engineering Management","volume":"309 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-12-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115553578","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the traditional training system is lack of scientific method to transfer the professional knowledge (tacit knowledge) to the operator. Applied RFID and Virtual Reality Technology in Knowledge-based Training System can convert the tacit knowledge to the explicit knowledge to different levels of operator. The trainee can capture the basic operation skill through the web-enabled and knowledge-based training system. Moreover, the system can provide the working experience and operation history about the production and tool application to the trainee through RFID technology. They can quickly and conveniently search their target tools that will apply the real manufacturing processes without any human-being supervising. The cost of training resource can be saved, because the workload of supervisor or senior operation is reduced. The senior operation can report the updating and real-time situation of production and tools through RFID technology with knowledge-based training system. The closed loop knowledge can enhance the precision level of analysis results of production system. The industry can be sustainable development through this system.","PeriodicalId":285694,"journal":{"name":"2010 IEEE International Conference on Industrial Engineering and Engineering Management","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-12-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122296895","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As a means of making up the lack of quantitative analysis within HFACS, the integration of BN and fuzzy analytical hierarchy process (AHP) have been selected to estimate quantitatively the contribution of human error to the accident. At the same time, the HFACS' 4-level structure provides a systematic guideline in the construction of the BN to model how human errors are related to form a network. Fuzzy AHP and decomposition method are applied to estimate the conditional probabilities of BN, which is more efficient manner and can reduce subjective biases. A case study of ship collision showed that the method is more flexible to seek out the critical latent human and organizational errors using the advantages of both techniques.","PeriodicalId":285694,"journal":{"name":"2010 IEEE International Conference on Industrial Engineering and Engineering Management","volume":"180 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-12-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122569603","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The proposed operations model consists of six dimensions (1) horizontal and vertical integration; (2) non-asset-based; (3) charge mode; (4) information technology; (5) finance support; and (6) brand effect.
