Title
Network topological approach to modeling accident causations and characteristics: analysis of railway incidents in Japan
Abstract
•Characteristics of factors and consequences of railway incidents are discussed.•Network diagrams are constructed to indicate the topological structure of incidents.•Complex interdependencies and cascading among factors and effects are captured.•Associations and sequences of the network's change mechanisms are explained.•Real railway incident data is used to illustrate the network analytical framework.
