1. Our engineering education places its primary emphasis on the performance of materials under stress.
ReplyDelete2.Most happen because of flawed decision-making, bad communications, and poor teamwork or leadership.
3.Humans trust their own opinion to much, they that they are always right.
4.when humans get tierd they are starting to make mistakes.
5.Human performance changes a lot. Human performance does not run smootly.
6. Beacause they are getting their money and they dont care what is their work outcome. Money is more important.
7.Some engineres use old techniques to solve modern problems usually these techniques dont work.
8. Every cheese slice represents a seaqunce in process and hole in the cheese is the flaw int the system.
9.78% of construction eroors represent human errors,50% of all structural failures involve water.
10. We should replace engineres who are bad at their work.

1.The primary emphasis of engineering educationis the performance of materials under stress.
ReplyDelete2.Main cause of most aircraft eccidents are mechanical failures.
3.For example, impulsivity( for not thinking). I think the most serious deficiency is the lack of character and that when we don´t know what we really want.
4.For example, the limits of human perception is bounded brain bulk (sense of smell, sight, hearing) and limited brain volume.
5.For example we get tired and we can´t work as much as robots or machines. We have limited enery supplies.

It refers that about 78% of all construction failures have been traced to some form of human error. And over 50% of all structural failures somehow involve water.
I think that there can not be any errors, because it is really important to know what damage the water can do to the buildings and bridges. People should know how to ignore errors.

1. The primary emphasis of engineering education is placed on the performance of materials under the stress.
ReplyDelete2. Most aircraft accidents doesnt take place because of mechanical failures, far more accidents happen because of the flawed decision-making, bad communications, and poor teamwork or leadership
3. The top five human personality and thought shortcomings are : anti-authority, impulsiveness, macho attitude, invulnerability and resignation.
4. Humans make more errors than computers, because humans can be lead to astrays and be easily deceived. Our weakness is also that we are afraid to tell our superior bad news, so we often lie about the truth.
5. Humans performance shortcoming is that we get fatigued after long-hours of work, especially when we are doing physical and tense work.
6. We often make poor decisions because we dont want to lose our social or professional position in the group.
7. Tendency to " solve the wrong problem" means that we look at a problem and we come up with a solution, what actually solves different problem and we apply this solution to our original problem.
8. "Swiss cheese model" is and organizational model, which is used to analyze the systematic failures and accidents.
9. I think that 78% of constructional failures refers to human errors and 50% refers to percent of constructional failures which are human caused and involve water.
10. Best way to minimize engineering errors is not to punish those who have made mistakes. Also engineers should demand higher standards of clarity and usability from publishers of building codes and other complex documents.

ReplyDelete1. Engineering education place the primary emphasis on on the performance of materials under stress.
ReplyDelete2. Main cause of most aircraft accidents is because of mechanical failures, they are caused by bad decision makeing, bad teamwork, bad communcation or bad leadership. Or all together.
3. There is five different shortcomings about human personality and thought. a) anti-authority b) impulsiveness c) macho d) invulnerability e) resignation.
4. Humans errors are the main reasons of failure. Perception could be decrease because drinking too much alcohol or using drugs.
5. Humans get tired after haveing a long day at work, also we can be affected many different ways, like be distracted by noises or smells ect.
6. Group could make whoppers beacause similar education, training, beliefs and education.
7. Engineers must renew their knowledge, because technology gets newer and things change. Knowledge is getting better and because of that engineered buildings and any kind of projects will be stronger and better.
8. It helps to solve errors, offers opportunities.
9. 78% - human errors / 50% - water erros. I think that human error numbers can be much smaller what there would be more supervisors.
10. To minimize engineering problems we should learn more and check ourselves more. There should be more supervisors and when you get in trouble you should ask help from other engineers.

1.On the performance of people under stress.
ReplyDelete2.Mechanical failures.
3.Humans don´t think of the consequences o their acts and decisions.
4.When humans work too musch they get tired and then they make mistakes.
5.Humans can be easily distracted. Humans make more errors than machines.
6.The author says that humans are like herd animals that usually make decisions that the whole herd wants. As a result, individuals may acquiesce with which they disagree.
7.Some engineers try to fit old solution to the new problem. Sometimes it might work but not always. Engineers sometimes look too cheap solutions.
8.It was developed by James Reason. In this model each slice of cheese represent a step in sequential process. Holes in it represent laws or individual shortcomings that offer opportunities for error. So the cheese describes how it is sometimes hard to make a direct way out of problems and things like that.
9.78% of all construction failures have been traced to some form of human error. I think it seems possible because the responsibiluty that come form checking errors on machines and stuf is actually very big.50%structural failures somehow involve water. It is true because sometimes water really is the pain in the neck for engineers as they are making projects
10.They sould do more teamwork
VE T.K
1) Materials what we use in constructing are not strong enogh
ReplyDelete2) because lack of inability, misunderstanding, and there is nobody who is on charge
3)Do not have enough knowledge and people do often mistakes
4)people do not notice his mistakes
5)People are tired after working long time, people are stirred by other people
6)they try to hold on officce harmony
7)Engineers sometimes try to solve problems what are already solved with new ideas
8)It represents how to engineers make something successfully and not to step into the cheeseholes what present mistakes
9)50 refers to water and 78 toconstruction failures and i think its true
10) to control if there is any mistake

1. Where does engineering education place the primary emphasis?
ReplyDeleteThe Primary emphacis is the performance of materials under stress.Engineers have to create objects as strong as possible and minimize the costs of materials.
2. What is the main cause of most aircraft accidents?
Main cause of most aircraft accidents is mechanical failures and disability to make right decicions under stress(for example Air France flight A447 in 31.may 2009)
3. Name some shortcomings of human personality and thought.
Anti-Authority, impulsiveness, macho, invulnerability and resignation.
4. Name some shortcomings of human perception.
the limits of human perception is bounded brain bulk.
5. Name some shortcomings of human performance.
The time of efficient human concentration is limited.For routine commands the time is longer (production line) and for working with brain the time is shorter.
6. Why do more people not necessarily make better decisions?
Because opinions may collide.
7. Explain the „solve the wrong problem“ tendency.
Engineers try yo fit old familiar solutions to new technical problems.
8. What is the „Swiss Cheese Model“?
In Swiss cheese model engineers are devide problem into slices and manage every slice separately.
9. What do the 78% and 50% refer to? What’s your opinion?
78% of all construction failures have been traced to some form of human error, also over 50% of all structural failures involve water.We shoud reduce the failures by thinking through twice every errors and prevent any possible mistakes that could happen.
10. What should be done to minimize engineering error?
After finishing some projects, engineers should let other engineers find all the mistakes what the first one has made.

ReplyDelete1) Primary emphases is on the performance of people under stress.
ReplyDelete2) Beacause they take big risks and mechanical failures.
3) Humans get tired for many hours of work and then they do mistakes repetitive.
4) I think it’s same like 3.
5) We take too many risks beacause we want to give our superiors good news
6) Beacause they are intimidated by the leader
7) Engineers don’t want to develop themselvs and use old knowledges.
8) Every slice is protcess steps and the like we say „cheese holes“ are the mistakse of protcess
9) We do mistakse too much, and it’s connected our laiziness
10) We have to to our work with heart, he have to focus our project and give our best!
