AB  - During the last couple of decades, there was a definitive increase in the need for process safety control due to working conditions and systems becoming more complex, up to a point where the existing methodologies could no longer provide satisfying results. Hence, the topic of this paper involves the development of an original methodology for risk assessment of pressure equipment, based on fracture mechanics and the influence of human and organizational factors. This methodology resulted from the systemization of existing knowledge in the filed of process safety, innovations and integration of existing tools and models for risk assessment, as well as from improvements in working with pressure equipment in general and combining of above approaches with fracture mechanics, which allowed the solving of main issues that existed in these fields. This was achieved by establishing and verifying new methodologies and models, with particular focus on simplicity and adaptability to practical application, along with solving of problems related to the lack of systematic and practical approach to assessing of the influence of human and organizational factors on risk. In order to verify the newly proposed methodology, a case study was conducted in Serbia, related to Bajina Bašta hydropower plant, which confirmed the accuracy and simplicity of the methodology in question. It was shown that the application of this methodology enabled a systematic approach to quantitative risk assessment for pressure equipment in any and all companies which work with such equipment, regardless of their size or field of work. Thus, it was concluded that the proposed methodology has offered valuable insights, both to the scientific and public communities, through its improvement of process safety.

AB  - Objectives. The analysis of previous research shows that indicators of human factors have not been sufficiently integrated into the models for risk assessment of pressure equipment to date. Therefore, the goal of this article is the creation of a universal measurement scale to assess the current condition of the impacts of human factors on the risk of pressure equipment exploitation in factories and plants. Methods. A research instrument with nine constructs and 61 dimensions was designed and tested on a sample size of 268 companies, by reliability, exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis. Results. The final model contains exact quantification of nine constructs described by 27 influencing human factors on risk associated with pressure equipment exploitation. Conclusions. The most influencing construct is 'communication', whereas the construct 'organizational change management' is the least influencing. Also, applying Pareto analysis shows that the most important constructs identified are 'communication', 'safety and health at work', 'potentially hazardous materials and equipment', 'maintenance/inspection', 'human error' and 'trainings and competences of employees for crisis situations'. It is a recommendation for the process industry enterprises, where pressure equipment is in operation, to include the obtained model in the risk assessment processes they are using.

AB  - Objectives. Previous research indicates that models for risk assessment of pressure equipment have not sufficiently or adequately integrated indicators of human factors and organizational factors. Methods. The goal of this article is to check the differences in attitudes of operators and managers engaged in the area of pressure equipment risk management. A questionnaire was designed and data were then collected from 253 operators and managers working with the same pressure equipment in Serbia. By applying a paired t test, differences in their attitudes were checked for issues described by the constructs of communication (COM), potentially hazardous materials and equipment (PHME), process safety (PS), safety and health at work (SHW), organizational change management (OCM), maintenance/inspection (MI) procedures, human error (HE), trainings and competences of employees for crisis situations (TCECS) and conducting research after accidents (CRAA). Results. It is statistically evident that the coincidence of attitudes accounted for less than 20% of questions. The highest coincidence is shown for PHME and TCECS, where one-half of the dimensions of the given constructs indicate that there are no statistically significant differences. Conclusions. The differences found could be used as an explanation for high-risk levels of pressure equipment exploitation and how they influence it.

AB  - According to available literature, safety at work and productivity of cranes are a necessary and insufficiently researched topic. Both research directions are closely related because they depend on the number and type of stoppages that occur during operation of these construction machines.
The focus of research should be on identifying the stoppages that can have fatal consequences for employees on-site, or unintended consequences in terms of production loss, means of work, or environment. In the present research, an attempt is made to create a methodology for identification, analysis, assessment, classification, and calculation of stoppage risk
in cranes (classified by categories and causes). Criteria used for analysis, assessment, and calculation of stoppage risk: degree of stoppage danger, frequency of stoppage classified
according to stoppage categories/causes, and downtime according to the adopted classification. Experimental research on a sample of 1,091 stoppages recorded on several cranes
over a longer time interval has confirmed the hypothesis of generating a 3-criterion matrix for stoppage risk assessment sensitive enough to prioritize key crane stoppage in terms
of risk. Results of experimental research indicate mechanical downtime of 16.22 %, a frequency 45.35 % in downtime, and RPN number 80, at hazard level 10. Selectively, according to the cause of stoppage, the results indicate that the hoisting brake (6.48 % downtime at hazard level 10; 2.14 % stoppage frequency) and hoist gear/tooth breakage (5.29 % downtime at hazard level 10; 3.58 % stoppage frequency) are key mechanical causes of stoppages and crane risk generators. By mitigating the given risks, it is possible to improve safety and increase productivity.

AB  - In recent decades, process safety control and process safety risk assessment have become very
attractive topics. The way control is carried out, using tools such as HAZOP, FMEA, FTA, and
similar is not sufficient to adequately prevent or control accidents with serious consequences in the
process industry. The need to analyze the causes of the causes themselves, with special emphasis on
the impact of organizational factors has arisen. This research results in the development of an
original, reliable, and valid measuring instrument for assessing organizational factors important
for risk assessment methodologies in working with pressure equipment. The initial instrument was
designed based on the previous research and then checked by statistical analysis, using the KaiserMeyerto-Olkin test, exploratory factor, and reliability analysis. The proposed instrument has
reduced 71 to 48 dimensions, describing 10 organizational factors important for risk management
of pressure equipment. Providing a valid and reliable measurement instrument is essential for a
proactive approach, which enables managers employed in the organization to mitigate the risks of
pressure equipment operation, and prevent accidents. The proposal of further research is the
application of confirmatory factor analysis or/and structural equation modeling on data collected.

AB  - BACKGROUND: Change in current approach to develop methodologies for process risk assessment, where it is commenced from the process industry and exclusively hazardous materials are dealt with, into the approach where it will be commenced from pressure equipment within any context and both technical and organizational aspects are considered, can lead to the orientation of a more comprehensive approach to risk assessment, and thereby to better results in this area. OBJECTIVE: The goal of this study implies the creation of a universal measurement instrument that will measure and quantify organizational factors impact on the risk of pressure equipment exploitation. METHODS: The research instrument was drawn from previous research and tested by the multivariate statistical methods using the sample size of 253. RESULTS: The confirmatory factor analysis conducted shows that the most influencing organizational factor is 'subcontractors for works from other enterprises' with maximum value of 104, whereas the factors 'maintenance/inspection', 'safety and health at work' and 'human error' are by 10% to 20% less influencing. There then follow 'training and competence of employees for crisis situations', communication', 'potentially hazardous materials and equipment' and 'organizational change management' and the factor 'conducting investigation after accidents' with the lowest value of 29. Pareto analysis indicates that the factors 'communication', 'subcontractors for works from other enterprises', 'organizational changes management', 'potentially hazardous materials and equipment', and 'training and competence of employees for crisis situations' participate with 80%, and they should be given special attention in practice. CONCLUSION: The instrument offered can ensure proactive information on the influence of organizational factors as risk predictors of pressure equipment operation, before given influences lead to accidents with severe consequences.

abstract = "Objectives. Previous research indicates that models for risk assessment of pressure equipment have not sufficiently or adequately integrated indicators of human factors and organizational factors. Methods. The goal of this article is to check the differences in attitudes of operators and managers engaged in the area of pressure equipment risk management. A questionnaire was designed and data were then collected from 253 operators and managers working with the same pressure equipment in Serbia. By applying a paired t test, differences in their attitudes were checked for issues described by the constructs of communication (COM), potentially hazardous materials and equipment (PHME), process safety (PS), safety and health at work (SHW), organizational change management (OCM), maintenance/inspection (MI) procedures, human error (HE), trainings and competences of employees for crisis situations (TCECS) and conducting research after accidents (CRAA). Results. It is statistically evident that the coincidence of attitudes accounted for less than 20% of questions. The highest coincidence is shown for PHME and TCECS, where one-half of the dimensions of the given constructs indicate that there are no statistically significant differences. Conclusions. The differences found could be used as an explanation for high-risk levels of pressure equipment exploitation and how they influence it.",

AB  - Risk based approach to assess structural integrity and life of pressure vessel has been presented, starring from EU PED 2014/68 and API 581, ending with use of basic fracture mechanics parameters. In the scope of risk matrix, structural integrity has been tackled by use of the Failure Assessment Diagram (FAD), while structural life was assessed by means of Paris law, using fatigue crack growth rate as relevant parameter. Several case studies have been provided to illustrate this comprehensive approach, including penstock and air storage tanks in Reversable Hydro Power Plant, and two spherical storage tanks, one for vinyl chloride monomer (VCM), the other for ammonia. Besides the assessment of integrity and life, including some important issue like over-pressurizing, roles of engineers and managers in this process is defined and explained.

AB  - Risk based analysis of reverse hydro power plant penstock structural integrity is performed using fracture mechanics parameters. To assess its structural integrity, extensive testing of the full-scale prototype had been performed, including hydrostatic over-pressurizing, during the design phase. More recently, the Failure Assessment Diagram has been used to evaluate probability, whereas phenomenological analysis has been used to estimate consequence, in the scope of common risk estimation. It is shown that over-pressuring has potential detrimental effect on pipeline safety, i.e. structural integrity.

AB  - Welded joints are analysed as critical regions in a pressure vessel in respect to structural failure due to the elastic-plastic fracture/crack growth. To assess structural integrity of pressure vessels used in chemical industry the risk based procedure has been introduced and applied in the case of a large spherical pressure vessel used as a vinyl -chloride monomer (VCM) storage tank in HIP Azotara Pancevo. The risk matrix has been used, taking into account the basic definition of risk, being the product of the probability and consequence, and applied to different regions of welded joints, having different mechanical properties, i.e. crack resistance. To estimate probability, the failure assessment diagram (FAD) has been used, as an engineering tool, defined according to the position of the operating point for different regions of the welded joint, relative to the critical point on the limit curve. Generally speaking, consequence is estimated based on pressure vessel parameters, or by detailed analysis of health, safety, business and security issues, but in the analysed case, the worst case scenario is assumed, with the highest consequence due to potential disaster for environment and fatalities.

AB  - New methodology for risk based approach to integrity assessment of pressure vessels has been introduced. Namely, the risk matrix has been defined with consequence taken as usual, whereas probability has been separated into two, emphasizing effects of human factor and material defects. Toward this end, the failure assessment diagram (FAD) has been used here as a simple engineering tool to estimate probability of the failure due to material defects. Probability of failure due to human factor has been estimated according to the survey performed (with operators and managers) in the firm where pressure vessel is located and operated. With consequence estimated according to the simple standard procedure or by using more complex procedures (API 581, RIMAP), the novel risk based structural assessment has been completed. As an example, cylindrical storage tanks for compressed air are analysed.

abstract = "New methodology for risk based approach to integrity assessment of pressure vessels has been introduced. Namely, the risk matrix has been defined with consequence taken as usual, whereas probability has been separated into two, emphasizing effects of human factor and material defects. Toward this end, the failure assessment diagram (FAD) has been used here as a simple engineering tool to estimate probability of the failure due to material defects. Probability of failure due to human factor has been estimated according to the survey performed (with operators and managers) in the firm where pressure vessel is located and operated. With consequence estimated according to the simple standard procedure or by using more complex procedures (API 581, RIMAP), the novel risk based structural assessment has been completed. As an example, cylindrical storage tanks for compressed air are analysed.",

AB  - Welded joints are analysed as critical regions in a pressure vessel in respect to structural
failure due to the elastic-plastic fracture/crack growth. To assess structural integrity of
pressure vessels used in chemical industry the risk based procedure has been introduced
and applied in the case of a large spherical pressure vessel used as a vinyl ¬chloride
monomer (VCM) storage tank in HIP Azotara Pančevo. The risk matrix has been used,
taking into account the basic definition of risk, being the product of the probability and
consequence, and applied to different regions of welded joints, having different
mechanical properties, i.e. crack resistance. To estimate probability, the failure assessment
diagram (FAD) has been used, as an engineering tool, defined according to the position of
the operating point for different regions of the welded joint, relative to the critical point on
the limit curve. Generally speaking, consequence is estimated based on pressure vessel
parameters, or by detailed analysis of health, safety, business and security issues, but in
the analysed case, the worst case scenario is assumed, with the highest consequence due
to potential disaster for environment and fatalities.

AB  - Background: Previous research has shown that today's crane cabins fail to meet the needs of a large proportion of operators. Performance and financial losses and effects on safety should not be overlooked as well.

Objective: The first aim of this survey is to model the crane cabin interior space using up-to-date crane operator anthropometric data and to compare the multivariate and univariate method anthropometric models. The second aim of the paper is to define the crane cabin interior space dimensions that enable anthropometric convenience.

Methods: To facilitate the cabin design, the anthropometric dimensions of 64 crane operators in the first sample and 19 more in the second sample were collected in Serbia. The multivariate anthropometric models, spanning 95% of the population on the basis of a set of 8 anthropometric dimensions, have been developed. The percentile method was also used on the same set of data.

Results: The dimensions of the interior space, necessary for the accommodation of the crane operator, are 1174×1080×1865 mm. The percentiles results for the 5th and 95th model are within the obtained dimensions.

Conclusions: The results of this study may prove useful to crane cabin designers in eliminating anthropometric inconsistencies and improving the health of operators, but can also aid in improving the safety, performance and financial results of the companies where crane cabins operate.

AB  - BACKGROUND: There are recent studies using new industrial workers' anthropometric data in different countries, but for Serbia such data are not available. OBJECTIVE: This study is the first anthropometric study of Serbian metal industry workers in the country, whose labor force is increasingly employed both on local and international markets. The metal industry is one of Serbia's most important economic sectors. METHODS: To this end, we collected the basic static anthropometric dimensions of 122 industrial workers and used principal components analysis (PCA) to obtain multivariate anthropometric models. To confirm the results, the dimensions of an additional 50 workers were collected. The PCA methodology was also compared with the percentile method. RESULTS: Comparing both data samples, we found that 96% of the participants are within the tolerance ellipsoid. According to this study, multivariate modeling covers a larger extent of the intended population proportion compared to percentiles. CONCLUSIONS: The results of this research are useful for the designers of metal industry workstations. This information can be used in dimensioning the workplace, thus increasing job satisfaction, reducing the risk of injuries and fatalities, and consequently increasing productivity and safety.

AB  - The risk based approach has been applied, in its simplest form, i.e. by using the risk matrix to illustrate how the water proof test can shift risk from high to very high level in the case of large spherical pressure vessel (ammonia storage tank). Having in mind the basic definition of risk, being the product of the probability and consequence, and fixing the consequence at the highest level, only probability of unfavourable event (leakage and/or failure) has been evaluated. Toward this end, the failure assessment diagram (FAD) has been used here as another simple engineering tool to estimate probability of the failure, as the function of the position of the operating point, i.e. defming probability as the ratio between the distance of the operating point from the zero point, and the appropriate distance between the point on the limiting curve and zero point. This simple engineering tool to assess structural integrity showed clearly that water proof test is not always recommended, because it disregards possible stable growth of cracks, which might reach critical size for unstable growth, i.e. it does not prove that failure will not happen in future under the same conditions.

AB  - Izvoz je vrlo značajna aktivnost za kompanije čije je sedište u zemljama u razvoju, dok je prerađivačka industrija najvažniji sektor EU ekonomije koji utiče na njen rast i pokreće njen tehnološki i inovativni razvoj, tako da je za očekivati da je izvoz ovog sektora veoma važna aktivnost sa nacionalne tačke gledišta. U skladu sa tim, tema ovog istraživanja su izvozne mogućnosti metalskog kompleksa i poređenje izvoznih sposobnosti preduzeća metalskog kompleksa Zlatiborskog okruga i ostataka Srbije na tržište EU. Značajnih razlika između barijera koje bi uticale na razlike u izvoznoj sposobnosti Zlatiborskog okruga i ostatka Srbije je malo, tačnije razlike su uglavnom u nivou poznavanja regulative. Značajan broj preduzeća nije upoznat sa direktivama novog pristupa, kao ni sa procedurama ocenjivanja usaglašenosti.

AB  - Exporting is very important activity for companies settled in developing countries, while manufacturing industry is the most important section of the EU economy that drives its growth and propels its technological and innovation development, so it is expected that export in that sector is extremely important activity from national economy point of view. Accordingly, the topic of this survey deals with export possibilities of metalworking industry and compares Zlatibor region export capabilities to export capabilities of the rest of Serbian metalworking companies to EU. There aren't many significant distinctions in export capabilities of Zlatibor region and the rest of Serbia, and they are mainly related to knowledge of regulations. Namely, a significant number of companies is not familiar with new approach directives, as well as with procedures for conformity assessment. Recommendation is more careful choice of suppliers that satisfy necessary requirements, too.

AB  - Procedures in the development process of crane cabins are arbitrary and subjective. Since approximately 42% of incidents in the construction industry are linked to them, there is a need to collect fresh anthropometric data and provide additional recommendations for design. In this paper, dimensioning of the crane cabin interior space was carried out using a sample of 64 crane operators' anthropometric measurements, in the Republic of Serbia, by measuring workspace with 10 parameters usingnine measured anthropometric data from each crane operator. This paper applies experiments run via full factorial designs using a combined traditional and Taguchi approach. The experiments indicated which design parameters are influenced by which anthropometric measurements and to what degree. The results are expected to be of use for crane cabin designers and should assist them to design a cabin that may lead to less strenuous sitting postures and fatigue for operators, thus improving safety and accident prevention.

AB  - Serbia is a developing country, which among other things implies underdeveloped industrial base. A fact is that more than two thirds of all Serbian industry includes low-tech and medium-low-tech companies. These companies should implement tools and methods that are simple and low cost, but effective and helpful in a way that will increase their productivity and product quality. This paper suggests such a method for obtaining production cycle time components, and verifies it through a case study conducted during three years in one Serbian company. Practical result of this research is that application of the proposed method leads to reducing production cycle time, increasing production time, increasing production and increasing overall satisfaction and engagement of the executor.

AB  - Quality management (QM) programme often is not a measure of high organisational effectiveness and business performances, so it is of interest to explore the relation between QM critical factors and total factor productivity (TFP). In this study the data were collected in the period 2004-2009 from Serbian industrial firms certified according to ISO 9000 with a total number of 176 observations. In order to determine the total factor productivity through the production function variables describing the dependence of added value and labour and capital factors of production were used. For the QM data, the results underwent factor analysis and reliability calculations so as to be used as independent variables in multiple regressions. The key result of this study is the confirmation of the hypothesis, that firms having above average score for a certain QM factor register statistically significant positive and negative differences in TFP, against average productivity of all firms in the sample.
