What Does APET Stand For?
APET stands for Accident Progression Event Tree
APET, or Accident Progression Event Tree, is a systematic analysis tool used in risk assessment and safety management. It visually represents the sequence of events that can lead to an accident, detailing the initial failure, intermediate events, and potential consequences. By mapping out these pathways, APET facilitates better understanding of accident mechanisms, aids in identifying weaknesses in safety systems, and informs decision-making to enhance safety protocols and mitigate risks in various industries.
