GO-Bayes Method for System Modeling and Safety Analysis
نویسنده
چکیده
Safety analysis ensuring the normal operation of an engineering system is important. The existing safety analysis methods are limited to relatively simple fact description and statistical induction level. Besides, many of them enjoy poor generality, and fail to achieve comprehensive safety evaluation given a system structure and collected information. This work describes a new safety analysis method, called a GO-Bayes algorithm. It combines structural modeling of the GO method and probabilistic reasoning of the Bayes method. It can be widely used in system analysis. The work takes a metro vehicle braking system as an example to verify its usefulness and accuracy. Visual implementation by Extendsim software shows its feasibility and advantages in comparison with the Fault Tree Analysis (FTA) method.

Bayes Networks and Fault Tree Analysis Application in Reliability Estimation (Case Study: Automatic Water Sprinkler System)
In this study, the application of Bayes networks and fault tree analysis in reliability estimation have been investigated. Fault tree analysis is one of the most widely used methods for estimating reliability. In recent years, a method called "Bayes Network" has been used, which is a dynamic method, and information about the probable failure of the system components will be updated according to...
متن کاملImpact of Optimally Minimizing Delay Times on Safety at Signalized Intersections in Urban Areas, Case Study: The City of Virginia Beach
Optimally minimizing delay times at signalized intersections can significantly improve both traffic flow and safety. However, most traffic flow optimizing tools do not measure the effect on safety. This study uses nonlinear programming (NLP) algorithms to optimally minimize delay times and employs both Safety performance functions (SPFs) and empirical Bayes (EB) before-after methodology to meas...
متن کاملEstimating the Safety Benefits of Red Light Cameras at Signalized Intersections in Urban Areas Case Study: The City of Virginia Beach
The Highway Safety Manual [HSM, 2010] recommends safety evaluations be performed before implementing any roadway treatment to predict the expected safety consequences. Safety consequences can be measured using crash prediction models, Crash Modification Factor (CMFs), or both. This paper develops a CMF to show the expected impact of red-light cameras (RLCs) on safety at signalized intersections...
متن کاملThe Analysis of Bayesian Probit Regression of Binary and Polychotomous Response Data
The goal of this study is to introduce a statistical method regarding the analysis of specific latent data for regression analysis of the discrete data and to build a relation between a probit regression model (related to the discrete response) and normal linear regression model (related to the latent data of continuous response). This method provides precise inferences on binary and multinomia...
متن کاملA Model for Runway Landing Flow and Capacity with Risk and Cost Benefit Factors
As the demand for the civil aviation has been growing for decades and the system becoming increasingly complex, the use of systems engineering and operations research tools have shown to be of further use in managing this system. In this study, we apply such tools in managing landing operations on runways (as the bottleneck and highly valuable resources of air transportation networks) to handle...
