Title In favour of a single hazard evaluation reference method
Original title Pour un seul et même référent d'analyse des risques [in French]
Bibliographic information Mar.-Apr. 2006, No.86, p.29-33. Illus.
Abstract This article presents the system failure analysis methodology (French acronym "MADS") for the evaluation of hazards, and argues in favour of its generalized use, allowing all parties to have a common reference base. MADS involves the following steps: identification of the sources of hazards; systematic building of scenarios; proposals of solutions aimed at improving the safety of the system under consideration; management of the residual hazards.
