Abstract
Quantified risk assessment QRA needs mathematicization of risk theory However attention has been paid almost exclusively to applications of assessment methods which has led to neglect of research into fundamental theories such as the relationships among risk safety danger and so on In order to solve this problem as a first step fundamental theoretical relationships about risk and risk management were analyzed for this paper in the light of mathematics and then illustrated with some charts Second manmachineenvironmentmanagement MMEM theory was introduced into risk theory to analyze some properties of risk On the basis of this a threedimensional model of risk management was established that includes a goal dimension a management dimension an operation dimension This goal management operation GMO model was explained and then emphasis was laid on the discussion of the risk flowchart operation dimension which lays the groundwork for further study of risk management and qualitative and quantitative assessment Next the relationship between Formal Safety Assessment FSA and Risk Management was researched This revealed that the FSA method which the international maritime organization IMO is actively spreading comes from Risk Management theory Finally conclusion were made about how to apply this risk management method to concrete fields efficiently and conveniently as well as areas where further research is required
