Li, M. (author), Mou, Junmin (author), Chen, Pengfei (author), Chen, Linying (author), van Gelder, P.H.A.J.M. (author)Regional risk analysis and management of maritime accidents is one of the fundamental tasks for maritime safety management. With the heavy and complicated maritime traffic in the ports and waterways, accidents, especially ship collision accidents, have been continuously posing threats to the maritime transportation system. To achieve effective...journal article 2023

Chockalingam, S. (author), Pieters, W. (author), Teixeira, André M.H. (author), van Gelder, P.H.A.J.M. (author)Both intentional attacks and accidental technical failures can lead to abnormal behaviour in components of industrial control systems. In our previous work, we developed a framework for constructing Bayesian Network (BN) models to enable operators to distinguish between those two classes, including knowledge elicitation to construct the directed...journal article 2023

Song, R. (author), Papadimitriou, E. (author), Negenborn, R.R. (author), van Gelder, P.H.A.J.M. (author)Many projects related to maritime autonomous surface ships (MASS) have been proceeding to date, which promotes the commercialization of MASS. It is anticipated that there will be ships with different degrees of autonomy coexisting in a waterborne transport system (WTS) in the near future, forming a mixed waterborne transport system (MWTS). To...journal article 2022

(author)The river Rhine is one of Europe’s busiest waterways and is part of the Rhine-Alpine corridor. In 2018 the river experienced a severe low discharge extreme. This impacted the river’s transport capacity for a period of several months, causing shortages of source materials and fuels in regions far in-land. Historically, prolonged droughts of this...journal article 2022

(author)Automated vehicles (AVs) aim to dramatically improve traffic safety by reducing or eliminating human error, which remains the leading cause of road crashes. However, commonly accepted standards for the ‘safe driving behaviour of machines’ are pending and urgently needed. Unless a common understanding of safety as a design value is achieved,...journal article 2022

(author)In response to the outbreak of SARS-CoV-2, many governments decided in 2020 to impose lockdowns on societies. Although the package of measures that constitute such lockdowns differs between countries, it is a general rule that contact between people, especially in large groups of people, is avoided or prohibited. The main reasoning behind these...journal article 2022

Burggraaf, J.M. (author), Groeneweg, J. (author), Sillem, S. (author), van Gelder, P.H.A.J.M. (author)When a train passes a red aspect, this is called a Signal Passed at Danger event or SPAD. Sometimes it is easy to identify the SPAD cause but in other cases it is unclear why the incident occurred, especially if the system operated as usual and the train driver was trained and experienced just like his or her colleagues. In previous research,...journal article 2022

Papadimitriou, E. (author), Afghari, A.P. (author), Tselentis, D. (author), van Gelder, P.H.A.J.M. (author)Road safety research is largely focused on prediction and prevention of technical, human or organisational failures that may result in critical conflicts or crashes. Indicators of traffic risk aim to capture the passage to unsafe states. However, research in other industries has shown that it is meaningful to analyse safety along the whole...journal article 2022

(author)Dam breaches often have catastrophic consequences in downstream areas. Hydrodynamic factors and the evacuation potential of the population at risk (PAR) have significant impacts on the loss of life (LOL) caused by dam breaches. However, the existing comprehensive evaluation models have not conducted in-depth research on the evacuation...journal article 2022

(author)Collision between ships is one of the major contributors to ship accidents. To facilitate the development of the real-time collision risk analysis model for collision avoidance, in this research, an improved Rule-aware Time-varying Collision risk Model is proposed, which considers the estimation of target ship motion and the corresponding...journal article 2022

Terheijden, O. T. (author), van Gelder, P.H.A.J.M. (author), Broere, W. (author)When process disturbances occur, workers on the Tunnel Boring Machine (TBM) will need to operate outside safe zones, reducing or eliminating the safety barrier ‘distance’ between them and potential sources of risk. Consequently, disturbances have a higher risk potential than regular TBM operations. By comparing the risks of registered process...journal article 2022

(author)Risk assessment of cascade reservoir dams is not only the key to ensure the safety of the basin, but also the objective requirement of dam risk management. Based on the development status of cascade reservoirs in China, the complexity of dam risk management of cascade reservoirs compared with a single reservoir was analyzed.

Song, R. (author), Wen, Yuanqiao (author), Tao, Wei (author), Zhang, Qi (author), Papadimitriou, E. (author), van Gelder, P.H.A.J.M. (author)Ship behavior is the semantic expression of corresponding trajectory in spatial-temporal space. The intelligent identification of ship behavior is critical for safety supervision in the waterborne transport. In particular, the complicated behavior reflects the long-term intentions of a ship, but it is challenging to recognize it automatically...journal article 2022

(author)Water management infrastructures such as floodgates are critical and increasingly operated by Industrial Control Systems (ICS). These systems are becoming more connected to the internet, either directly or through the corporate networks. This makes them vulnerable to cyber-attacks. Abnormal behaviour in floodgates operated by ICS could be caused...journal article 2021
