An analysis of causation in aerospace accidents
Konrad Weiß, Nancy G. Leveson, Kristina Lundqvist, Nima Farid, Margaret V. Stringfellow · 2002
After a short description of common accident models and their limitations, a new model is used to evaluate the causal factors in a mission interruption of the SOHO (SOlar Heliospheric Observatory) spacecraft. The factors in this accident are similar to common factors found in other recent software related aerospace losses.
