Modelling the ship safety on waterway according to navigational signs reliability

An approach to safety analysis connected with consecutive “m out of n” systems is presented. Further, the consecutive “m out of n: G” system is defined and the recurrent formula for its reliability function evaluation are proposed. Next the IALA buoys and leading lights system are introduced. Moreover, the safety states model for ship navigation are defined. Further, analysis of safety during manoeuvre in restricted area with curved draws is illustrated.
