This paper presents a method for the quantification of the effects of measures of risk prevention of the frequency for rupture of pipework. Some methodologies, given in the literature for this purpose, assume that each plant under analysis is characterized by the same combinations of causes of failure and prevention mechanisms but this assumption is not always true. The approach suggested here is based on the methodology proposed in 1999 by Papazoglou for the quantification of the effects of organizational and managerial factors. Taking advantage of this methodology the objective of the assessment of the influence of measures of risk prevention in pipework has been achieved through the definition of the links between the causes of failure and the measures adopted by the company in order to prevent and/or to mitigate them.

Abstract
This paper presents a method for the quantification of the effects of measures of risk prevention of the frequency for rupture of pipework. Some methodologies, given in the literature for this purpose, assume that each plant under analysis is characterized by the same combinations of causes of failure and prevention mechanisms but this assumption is not always true. The approach suggested here is based on the methodology proposed in 1999 by Papazoglou for the quantification of the effects of organizational and managerial factors. Taking advantage of this methodology the objective of the assessment of the influence of measures of risk prevention in pipework has been achieved through the definition of the links between the causes of failure and the measures adopted by the company in order to prevent and/or to mitigate them.Pubblicazioni consigliate
