Established Methods in Risk Engineering
Abstract Some methods in risk engineering are well known and established in different industries. Their use depends on a variety of aspects, including goals, economic aspects, competition, public interest, resources and changes in safety culture. For example, NASA turned away from a quantitative and probabilistic approach during the Apollo program to qualitative methods as FMEA (Failure Modes and Effects Analysis). After the Challenger accident (January 28, 1986), quantitative approaches are under discussion again /11/. Other key questions are of interest too: The processing industry is intensely competitive and executives consequently want to know “How much can be spent on safety?” In contrast, the nuclear industry must prove that there is no accident exceeding a design basis accident. In the space and aircraft industry the final decision depends on “Is it safe to launch?”
