Quantification of Cut Sequence Set for Fault Tree Analysis
A new evaluation method is presented that employs cut sequence set (CSS) to analyze fault trees. A cut sequence is a set of basic events that fail in a specific order that can induce top event. CSS is the aggregate of all the cut sequences in a fault tree. The paper continues its former researches on CSS and uses CSS, composed of sequential failure expressions (SFE), to represent the occurrence...
متن کاملUnfolding Polyhedra via Cut-Tree Truncation
We prove that an infinite class of convex polyhedra, produced by restricted vertex truncations, always unfold without overlap. The class includes the “domes,” providing a simpler proof that these unfold without overlap.
متن کاملError assessment in man-machine systems using the CREAM method and human-in-the-loop fault tree analysis
Background and Objectives: Despite contribution to catastrophic accidents, human errors have been generally ignored in the design of human-machine (HM) systems and the determination of the level of automation (LOA). This paper aims to develop a method to estimate the level of automation in the early stage of the design phase considering both human and machine performance. Methods: A quantita...
متن کاملEvaluation of “safety-domino”: a Graphical Metaphor for Supporting Minimal Cut Set Analysis
Embedded systems, which are safety critical, are frequently analyzed to find out whether they follow the safety standards and to improve their safety. Fault tree analyses enable the safety analysts to find possible causes of a system’s failure or unsafe behavior. From a fault tree, minimal cut sets are computed giving unique combinations of basic events that cause such a failure. Using minimal ...
متن کاملA Behaviour-Based Method for Fault Tree Generation
This paper presents a new theory of fault trees for complex systems. The theory treats faults as behaviours, and fault-tree gates as operations on those behaviours. Fault tree analysis is an important and widely used technique for understanding safety critical systems. Traditional fault tree methodologies typically view faults in terms of failure events or conditions of the system being analyse...
