A New Accident Analysis Method Based on Complex Network and Cascading Failure

الملخص EN

A new accident causation model is proposed for accident analysis based on the complex network theory.

By employing the cascading failure scheme, a new accident investigation method is performed on the associated new model, by which we can reveal key causation factors and key causation factor chains that lead to the final accident.

The efficiency of a network is introduced for evaluating the severity of the damage of the whole network and hence the severity of the accident if it happens.

All these can provide the government or associations with recommendations for accident prediction and prevention.
