| Summary: | This study is an attempt to apply the Human Error Assessment and Reduction
Technique (HEART) method in order to quantify the human failure event (HFE) for
probabilistic safety assessment (PSA) of a TRIGA Mark II reactor, situated at the Malaysia
Nuclear Agency, Malaysia. This serves the qualitative part of the human reliability analysis
(HRA) framework and HEART method is considered due to its potential applicability in
quantifying human error probability (HEP) for other industries, beside nuclear power. This
study addresses the application of HEART method in details: classification of selected research
reactor human task into the Generic Task Type, the assignment of the nominal HEP, evaluation
of Error Producing Condition and the resultant Assessed Proportion of Affect. The results of
this study will be applied in the quantification of PSA's event sequence end state frequencies. |
