  2. Shift work - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shift_work

    Mental (cognitive) fatigue due to inadequate sleep an/or disturbances of circadian rhythms is a common contributor to accidents and untoward incidents. [59] While this risk cannot be eliminated, it can be managed through personal and administrative controls. This type of management is conducted through a Fatigue Risk Management System (FRMS).

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birnbaum–Saunders...

    The case where μ = 0 and β = 1 is called the standard fatigue life distribution.The pdf for the standard fatigue life distribution reduces to = + >; >Since the general form of probability functions can be expressed in terms of the standard distribution, all of the subsequent formulas are given for the standard form of the function.

  5. Fatigue Avoidance Scheduling Tool - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fatigue_Avoidance...

    A “24/7 Operational Effectiveness Toolset” was developed as an Internet-based tool accessible through a browser, providing support for the scheduling of regular, cyclic work and rest (regularly rotating shiftwork), for irregular work-rest schedules, for the effects of pharmaceutical countermeasures, and for the formal Operational Risk ...

  6. Operational risk management - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operational_risk_management

    Time critical risk management is used during operational exercises or execution of tasks. It is defined as the effective use of all available resources by individuals, crews, and teams to safely and effectively accomplish the mission or task using risk management concepts when time and resources are limited. Examples of tools used includes ...

  7. PFD allowance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PFD_allowance

    The fatigue allowance is intended to cover the time that the worker should be given to overcome fatigue due to work related stress and conditions. There are three factors that cause fatigue: (1) physical factors like standing and use of force, (2) mental and cognitive factors like mental strain and eye strain , and (3) environmental and work ...

  8. Rainflow-counting algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rainflow-counting_algorithm

    Imagine that the time history is a template for a rigid sheet (pagoda roof). Turn the sheet clockwise 90° (earliest time to the top). Each "tensile peak" is imagined as a source of water that "drips" down the pagoda. Count the number of half-cycles by looking for terminations in the flow occurring when either:

  9. Failure mode and effects analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Failure_mode_and_effects...

    graph with an example of steps in a failure mode and effects analysis. Failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA; often written with "failure modes" in plural) is the process of reviewing as many components, assemblies, and subsystems as possible to identify potential failure modes in a system and their causes and effects.
