The investigation and modelling of aviation accident causation is dominated by linear models. This book addresses this issue by developing a new approach to investigating aviation accident causation through information networks. It presents a new model that offers many potential developments and some key areas are studied in this research.

Provides an overview of, and practical guidance on, the range of human factors (HF) methods that can be used for the purposes of accident analysis and investigation in complex sociotechnical systems. This book describes a range of HF-based accident analysis methods, as well as step-by-step guidance on how to apply them.

Fratricide has been defined as firing on your own forces, when mistaking them for enemy forces, which results in injury or death. This book presents and validates, via the use of case studies, a model of teamwork and decision-making factors that are associated with incidents of fratricide.

Since its inception, just after the Second World War, human factors research has paid special attention to the issues surrounding human control of systems. Using extensive case study material, this book demonstrates how the social and technical domains interact, and why each require equal treatment and importance in the future.

This second edition of Human Factors Methods: A Practical Guide for Engineering and Design now presents 107 design and evaluation methods including numerous refinements to those that featured in the original. The book acts as an ergonomics methods manual, aiding both students and practitioners.

Presents a human factors and ergonomics evaluation of a digital Mission Planning and Battle-space Management (MP/BM) system. This book emphasises on the activities at the Brigade (Bde) and the Battle Group (BG) headquarters (HQ) levels. It concludes with a summary of the research project's findings and offers many insights.

Taking an integrated approach to Human Factors and Ergonomics in the control room environment, this book presents 14 human factors topics: competencies, training, procedures, communications, workload, automation, supervision, shift patterns, control room layout, SCADA interfaces, alarms, control room environment, human error, and safety culture.
