MORT-based approach

In contrast, the Department of Energy s MORT-based approach provides excellent accident investigation, audit, and appraisal tools oriented to ongoing operations. Despite emphasis on the importance of the upstream process, however, system safety programs based on MORT tend to lack the early, detailed, systematic hazard identification and analysis efforts that are characteristic of MIL-STD-882B programs. 

McClay s approach to causation is somewhat different but also has some similarity to Benner s postulations and the bases on which MORT is founded. McClay indicates that ... 

Another major approach tends to be very different from other efforts described. The Department of Energy s approach is based on the management oversight and risk tree (MORT), a comprehensive, state-of-the-art program for safety management and system safety. 

Barrier analysis Use to identify barrier and equipment failures and procedural or administrative problems Provides systematic approach Requires familiarity with process to be effective This process is based on the MORT Hazard/ Target Concept... 

Different approaches to the calculation of vibrational corrections to response properties can be found in the work of Sauer and Pack (2000), Ruud et al. (2000), and Kongsted and Christiansen (2006). The Boltzmann averaging procedure for conformationally flexible molecule has been critically reviewed by Crawford and Allen (2009). Mort and Autschbach (2008) have proposed an approach based on a decoupling of hindered rotations from the remaining (high-frequency) vibrational modes, which allows for a separate calculation of the hindered rotations without invoking the harmonic approximation.
