Fault tree analysis (FTA) is one of the most popular failure analysis techniques that reveal
the potential pathways leading to systems or components failure. It has been widely …

Safety and reliability are rigorously assessed during the design of dependable systems.
Probabilistic risk assessment (PRA) processes are comprehensive, structured and logical …

This study aimed at establishing fault tree analysis (FTA) using expert opinion to compute
the probability of an event. To find the probability of the top event (TE), all probabilities of the …

There are many available techniques which are widely used for failure probability analysis.
Fault tree analysis (FTA) is a well-known method to identify the basic events (BEs) to reach …

Fault tree analysis is a probability-based technique for estimating the risk of an undesired
top event, typically a system failure. Traditionally, building a fault tree requires involvement …

In different engineering processes, the reliability of systems is increasingly evaluated to
ensure that the safety–critical process systems will operate within their expected operational …

Safety-instrumented systems (SISs) have been widely installed to prevent accidental events
and mitigate their consequences. Mechanical final elements of SISs often become …

The firewater system is a complex system associated with the safety process of Hydrogen
storage tanks. Predicting preventive maintenance strategies is essential to ensure the long …

The main objective of fault tree analysis method is to estimate the “Top Event occurrence
probability”. This requires determination of failure time distribution functions also known as …

Analysis of failure modes in a system is essential in increasing the reliability of the system.
Fault trees model probabilistic causal chains of events that lead to a global system failure …
