GENERAL SAFETY CONCEPTS

In this article, we will go through the safety concepts that can be applied to a chemical substance to give the readers a general overview of the matter. The safety of hazardous pharmaceuticals is a field that can be included in this approach, and many suggestions or proposals regarding pure chemicals will be discussed. The term chemicals is used interchangeably with pharmaceuticals because all pharmaceuticals are, in essence, chemicals. 

Restricted by the level of economic development and staff own quality, the safety concept of miners is generally we at present. It is in the dependent and passive position basically. They abide by the rules and regulations only because they are afraid of being punished. The so-called safety first and safety discipline consciousness is fuzzy. In addition, various safety regulations in some enterprises are to some extent on paper or verbal, not into a habit and behavior criterion of all employees, which is not enough to let them consciously accept and promote coal mine safety culture. 

As a primer. Standard Practice for System Safety, 882-D, Department of Defense. General system safety concepts and program requirements are set forth. 

Fimctional safety is a part of general safety, which depends on the proper response of the control and/or protection systems to the inpnt signals during abnormal states of a machine, installation or hazardous plant. The concept of functional safety formulated in lEC 61508 presents an example of good engineering practice applied to the design and operation of the safety-related electric, electronic and programmable electronic (E/E/PE) systems. The term safety-related applies to the systems that perform specified fiinction(s) to ensure that the risk is maintained at acceptable level. Two different requirements should be satisfied to ensure the functional safety ... 

A collection of philosophical statements and general advice relative to the application of the MORT system safety concepts and listed criteria for an assessment of the effectiveness of their application... 

It has been suggested here that this basic system safety concept is in direct correlation with the stated intentions of the Occupational Safety and Health Act, as established by the General Duty Clause. In many cases, then, system safety cannot... 

This chapter introduces fire safety concepts from the perspective of fuel, heat, and oxygen. The statistics regarding fires within educational properties is included here as support for the fire safety recommendations made throughout the chapter. Finally, a discussion of general fire safety aspects will be included to assist the school official in making appropriate decisions when faced with the risks of fire. 

Though this might appear as almost a laundry list of system safety concepts, they do ht well into a cogent unit as PSM plan, the same type of elements described in the system safety program plan and in general in a good SMS as described in Chapter 4. 

Section 2 introduces the general safety objectives, concepts and principles for the safety of nuclear installations with emphasis on the radiation safety and nuclear safety aspects of research reactors. This section draws on Ref. [1]. 

The SACs identification and creation should be done as soon as possible in a project (compare with section 6) e.g. either during development of the Safety Concept or while performing the Preliminary Hazard Analysis. But generally at anytime during a project, SACs are possible, e.g. even during the creation of the validation report. 

After defining all attributes of the functional safety concept, it is automatically checked that for each safe state at least one safety-related function is defined and that for each assumption at least one general safety requirement exists by executing Conditions 3C01SS and 3C02AS (see Tab. 4). 

This chapter should outline the general design concept and the approach adopted to meet the fundamental safety objectives [20,21]. The compliance of the actual design with the specific technical safety requirements should be demonstrated in more detail in other sections of the SAR, which may be... 

Which general targets could be formulated for a safety concept. ISO 26262 clearly defined that the functional and technical safety concept should be defined derived from the ITEM Definition, a system on vehicle level and the resulting safety goals from the Hazard and Risk Analysis. 

Based on a simplified functional model for the computer, with consideration to the two different functions, which need to be safeguarded, we will now illustrate a safety concept applicable until ASIL C. Since for an ASIL C function we already have to corroborate in the software, before we control an ASIL C action, a certain redundancy of the sensors needs to be present. Generally, it is possible to say that a single analog signal cannot be safeguarded more than up to ASIL B. For the actuator control often a current read back path ensures that we can verily the information for the control through the microcontroller. 

Also in this context a detailed analysis of the target function and the required safety measurements is necessary in order to avoid an overall generalized safeguarding. Almost all error modes could be the possible cause of failure for safety relevant effects. To safeguard the computer just like programmable l( c control (PLCs) would not be appropriate. This is why a safety concept isn t only useful in regards to the vehicle systems but also for function or system elements, which later have to be integrated in the vehicle system.
