“…When the international safety management (ISM) code was introduced, the effectiveness of it was also conducted both in UK (Bhattacharya et al, 2012) and in Greece (Tzannatos and Kokotos 2009). Similar work for analyzing the effectiveness of safety management was also carried out in the gulf of Finland by using Bayesian network (Hänninen et al, 2014) and also on-board ships (Akyuz and Celik 2014).…”

Maritime accidents have received considerable attentions due to the enormous property damage, casualties and serious environmental pollution. This paper first makes statistical analysis of the different types of maritime accidents in the period of 2012 to 2014 in the Yangtze River. Second, the problems of emergency management of maritime accidents are also proposed from the analysis of the major accident "Eastern Star".. Afterwards, four practice cases, including decision support for maritime accidents, emergency resource allocation, emergency simulation system and effectiveness of emergency management, are introduced to present the insights gained from these practices. Last, in order to address these problems, this paper proposes that an artificial societies, Computational experiments, and Parallel execution (ACP) approach should be introduced to establish an improved management system for maritime accidents in the future, and an ACP based maritime accident emergency management framework is proposed.

“…Dangerous human factors include fatigue, carelessness, stress, health, situation awareness, mistakes, inadequate training, and safety culture [8][9][10]. Further, port policies, port facilities, increased vessel traffic and loading/ unloading of cargo, international policies, and force majeure events such as typhoons, earthquakes, and tidal waves are also key.…”

Introduction Maintaining port safety in full conformity with IMO standards is a requisite for every port and country. To do this, understanding the challenges and human factors involved is key. To date, much research has shed valuable light on these factors and considered how to address them. One aspect that is often noted is that both maintaining port safety and researching port safety presents numerous challenges. This paper considers both these aspects in the context of a case study of port safety in Kaohsiung port, Taiwan. Methods Historical data and data from in-depth interviews with port operators and government officials are presented, analysed, and discussed alongside the literature. Results and conclusion In the spirit of case study research, discussion and conclusions of the data are used to generate theory for consideration in ways to approach research in the field. Specifically, more holistic large scale research is recommended into how port safety is maintained, to explore the interdependencies of the factors involved to help improve port safety and complement and sit alongside our current understandings of it. Suggestions for how this research can be approached are made.

“…Therefore, studying the human factor and accident analysis has recently become a popular research topic among the maritime professionals and scientists. Within this frame, the whole maritime system is a manmade system that relies on real professionals but interestingly the center of the problem is again the "human" themselves [8]. In fact, there are many studies on the role of human factor in maritime accidents and incidents [9].…”
