Zhang, J.F., He, A., Fan, CL., Yan, X.P. and Guedes Soares, C. (2021), “Quantitative analysis on risk influencing factors in the Jiangsu segment of the Yangtze River”, , Risk Analysis, Vol. 41(9), pp. 1560-1578.
Quantitative Risk Influencing Factors (RIFs) are proposed, using the Conjugate Bayesian update approach to analyse 945 collision accidents and incidents cases from the Jiangsu Segment of the Yangtze River over five years from 2012 to 2016. The accident probability is compared under a pairwise comparison mode in order to reflect the relative risk between accidental situations. The Bayesian update mode is constructed to quantitatively evaluate the relative importance of different Risk Influencing Factors. The most risky segment of Jiangsu Waterways as well the main causations of collisions are identified based on the distributions of collision risk in the 6 segments of the waterways. The results can support managers to develop the most effective policies to mitigate the collision risk.
