The authors of the chapter proved that the fundamental intellectual processes, which lie on the basis of decision-making behavior of the human-operator, could be identified on the bases on the analogies with the devices (elements). The basic intellectual processes of the Rational decision-making models can be adequately identified by the transient processes of the PID-controller; the intellectual processes of the Bounded Rationality and Intuitive decision-making models can be identified by the transient processes of the nonlinear elements. Taxonomy of the most typical automatic control theory elements and their compliance with certain decision-making models with a point of view of decision-making processes specificity and on human-operator behavior in the context of the socio-technical concept was obtained Authors of the chapter also accept the suggestion that the instruments of collective multi-criteria decision-making and social-network analysis theory have similar mathematical and methodological bases.

Mathematical models of human operator play a very important role in the Human-in-the-Loop manual control system. For several decades, modeling human operator’s dynamic has been an active research area. The traditional classical human operator models are usually developed using the Quasi-linear transfer function method, the optimal control theory method, and so on. The human operator models established by the above methods have deficiencies such as complicated and over parameterized, even for basic control elements. In this paper, based on the characteristics of human brain and behaviour, two kinds of fractional order mathematical models for describing human operator behavior are proposed. Through validation and comparison by the actual data, the best_fit model with smallest root mean squared error (RMSE) is obtained, which has simple structure with only few parameters, and each parameter has definite physical meaning.

Human Reliability Analysis in the Context of Accident ScenariosThis article addresses the issue of human reliability analysis (HRA) in the context of accident scenarios. The need for contextual analysis of human operator behavior with careful treating of errors and dependent failures within given accident scenario is emphasized. The functional safety analysis including the human reliability analysis is illustrated on example of the protection layers of a hazardous industrial system that includes the basic process control system (BPCS), human-operator (HO) and safety instrumented systems (SIS) designed with regard to the functional safety criteria.
