Abstract
Abstract A review of historic mathematical, risk, and engineering science information was conducted to find the roots of the risk matrix. The objective was to locate and evaluate information surrounding its use. A three‐tiered (low, medium, high) system is historical, if not biologically programmed into human physiology. The Risk Matrix is a Likert preference system that has migrated into engineering and science. No testing or mathematical foundation was found.
期刊介绍：
Process Safety Progress covers process safety for engineering professionals. It addresses such topics as incident investigations/case histories, hazardous chemicals management, hazardous leaks prevention, risk assessment, process hazards evaluation, industrial hygiene, fire and explosion analysis, preventive maintenance, vapor cloud dispersion, and regulatory compliance, training, education, and other areas in process safety and loss prevention, including emerging concerns like plant and/or process security. Papers from the annual Loss Prevention Symposium and other AIChE safety conferences are automatically considered for publication, but unsolicited papers, particularly those addressing process safety issues in emerging technologies and industries are encouraged and evaluated equally.
