Modelling Resilience for Maintenance and Outage. | | Activity Acronym: | MoReMO | | Authors: | Oedewald, P., Macchi, L., Axelsson, C., Eitrheim, M. H. R. | | Abstract: | Resilience Engineering (RE) is a new approach to safety that helps organisations and individuals adapt to unforeseen events and long-term changes. Such an approach is needed by nuclear power plants (NPPs) as they face demanding modification projects, high staff turnover and increased pressures to maintain and improve safety. The goal of the Modelling Resilience for Maintenance and Outage (MoReMO) project is to develop and test models and methods to identify and analyse resilience in safety-critical activities in natural everyday settings. In 2011, we have applied four approaches in different case studies: Organisational Core Task modelling (OCT), Functional Resonance Analysis Method (FRAM), Efficiency Thoroughness Trade-Off (ETTO) analysis, and Work Practice and Culture Characterisation. The project has collected data through observations, interviews and document reviews at two NPPs. Together, the four approaches have provided valuable insights for understanding the rationale behind work practices, their effects on safety, and the support of flexibility and adaptability. In 2012, the MoReMO project will complete the data collection and integrate results on how resilience can be operationalized in practical safety management tools for the companies. | | Keywords: | resilience, maintenance, outage, OCT, FRAM, ETTO, work practice | | Publication date: | 01 Febr 2012 | | ISBN: | ISBN 978-87-7893-335-5 | | Number of downloads: | 3352 | | Download: |  NKS-262.pdf |
