- In the work with usability for the traffic environment, safety aspects are crucial, especially for the elderly population. This paper presents the use of a classical risk analysis method, Fault Tree Analysis (FTA), when analysing usability aspects in two case studies regarding trams and elderly users. In these studies, the FTA-method was used as an analysis tool for empirical collected data from observations and interviews. The method worked well for formation of data as well as for showing connections and relations between data. To conclude, the use of a classical risk analysis method has shown to give adequate results to usability engineering design.

Safety in Focus
- 2007
-
In: 39th annual conferece of the Nordic Ergonomics Society, NES2007.
-
Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- In Gothenburg approximately 300 accidents involving falling in public transportation vehicles are reported annually. This paper presents the work of investigating the problem situation as well as illustrating and communicating the user requirements through design concepts of tram and bus interior. In earlier projects initiated by the assigner a list of user requirement has been the final result. There has, however, been difficulties regarding transforming the requirements into solutions. Therefore, in this project, design concepts were developed in order to illustrate the requirements. This gave a more holistic and less traditional view of possible solutions to the problem.
