In doing so, the literature and operational features of IWT were initially reviewed to figure out risk elements (REs) influencing the navigational safety for IWT. After that, a fuzzy Analytic Hierarchical Process (AHP) approach was adopted to estimate the weight for the likelihood and consequence measures of REs. Then, continuous risk matrix (RM) was introduced to identify REs’ risk level. Lastly, to test the proposed research model’s applicability, IWT operators across Vietnam were empirically surveyed. The empirical findings could be useful for IWT operators in launching managerial policies to boost their navigational safety. Furthermore, the proposed risk evaluation framework may serve as a methodological reference in relevant literature.</span></p>}, number={1}, journal={Transactions on Maritime Science}, author={Ha, Huy-Tien and Ngo, Lan and Pham, Van-Chung and Nguyen, Thanh-Liem}, year={2023}, month={Apr.} }
