Recognizing design issues in process industry for safer design

In this study, accident cause analysis was used to generate a number of design failure elements (DFEs) that highlight the general classification of design errors. Then, a database of cases, suggesting design changes from unsafe to safe design, was compiled from journals, accident corrective action,...
