A review on risk assessment methods for maritime transport

A Systematic Literature Review of Maritime Transportation Safety Management

“…By combining BN with other methods, a more comprehensive analysis method can be adopted, such as BN-FMEA [95], BN-FTA [97], and BN machine learning [98]. The use of BN in risk assessments has made significant advancements; scholars have begun to explore the integration of time-sliced temporal data into BN models, known as DBN [12], which is used to model the evolution of a system over time. For instance, Jiang and Lu [44] presented a DBN model for assessing the dynamic risk of maritime accidents.…”

“…Research Theme [20] Risk assessment models [16] Risk analysis [11] Risk analysis [19] Expert elicitation and BN modeling [21] Maritime transport policy [10] Fire and explosion accidents [14] Models and computational algorithms [22] Marine fuels [23] Navigation data visualization [24] Cyber risk perception [18] Human and organizational factors analysis [15] Human factors and safe performance [25] Resilience [13] Human reliability analysis [12] Risk assessment methods Step 1-Obtaining the original dataset by using data mining. According to the discussion in Section 1, the safety issues involved in maritime transportation can be interpreted from the aspects of risk analysis and emergency management; therefore, "maritime transportation safety" or "maritime transportation risk" or "maritime transportation emergency" was selected as the search query to identify the records from the database.…”

“…For example, there were only nine keywords that occurred at least 10 times in the considered dataset. These keywords were "resilience" (38), "model" (32), "framework" (27), "vulnerability" (24), "Bayesian network" (16), "optimization" ( 16), "impact" (14), "risk" (12), and "safety" (12). Keyword burst citation analysis can be used to detect whether a specific research topic is hot or not.…”

“…Therefore, the present study sought to systemically review the work conducted to clear these obstacles impeding the sustainable development of the maritime industry. Several similar reviews have been conducted by scholars [10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19], mainly focused on the theme of risk analysis, methodologies, or factors analysis, and these review articles are summarized in Table 1. Unlike previous literature reviews concentrating on the analysis of accident causes and risk assessment to prevent the reoccurrence of maritime accidents, in the present study, we focused on the thematic coverage of safety risk analyses and emergency issues in maritime transportation aspects, such as shipping lanes, maritime supply chains, and maritime operations.…”

A Fuzzy Ballast Water Risk Assessment Model in Maritime Transport

“…A comprehensive overview of the environmental impact assessment of key pollutants generated during maritime transport operations discusses various risk assessment methods for maritime transport [19]. The way risks are now assessed only considers one dimension-time or space-making it difficult to address the complex, dynamic need for non-stationary risk management.…”
