SLIM‐MAUD: A Computer‐Based Technique for Human Reliability Assessment

Abstract

This article describes the current status of the Success Likelihood Index Method (SLIM) approach to the quantification of human reliability in risk and reliability assessment. The technique has now been implemented using an interactive computer program called MAUD to give a stand‐alone package (SLIM‐MAUD) which can be easily used by engineers without specialist knowledge of human reliability assessment. The article describes the use of the technique to provide design recommendations. The application of SLIM‐MAUD to a series of nuclear power plant tasks is described.
