Abstract System safety, reliability and risk analysis are important tasks that are performed
throughout the system life-cycle to ensure the dependability of safety-critical systems …

Resilience is the ability of a system to react to and recover from disturbances with minimal
effect on its dynamic stability. While resilience has been the focus of research in several …

The Bayesian network (BN) is a powerful model for probabilistic knowledge representation
and inference and is increasingly used in the field of reliability evaluation. This paper …

In this paper, a bibliographical review over the last decade is presented on the application of
Bayesian networks to dependability, risk analysis and maintenance. It is shown an …

Bayesian network (BN) is a commonly used tool in probabilistic reasoning of uncertainty in
industrial processes, but it requires modeling of large and complex systems, in situations …

The second edition of this bestseller provides a practical and accessible introduction to the
main concepts, foundation, and applications of Bayesian networks. This edition contains a …

A domino effect is a low frequency high consequence chain of accidents where a primary
accident (usually fire and explosion) in a unit triggers secondary accidents in adjacent units …

Wind energy farms are moving into deeper and more remote waters to benefit from
availability of more space for the installation of wind turbines as well as higher wind speed …

Risk analysis of subsea blowout accidents is critical to well control strategies and the overall
safety of offshore drilling operations. Therefore, the interactive relationships among different …

This paper presents a novel methodology to estimate and predict the functional reliability of
a system using system functional indicators and condition indicators of components. Instead …
