Water quality assessment analysis is an important technical means for water pollution
prevention and control. In this research area, mechanism models and real observation data …

Power system reliability evaluation plays a vital role in the planning and operation studies by
reflecting the system safety level. In this paper, a combination of a non-sequential Monte …

Fault tree analysis remains the most commonly employed method, particularly in the safety
critical industries, to predict the probability or frequency of system failures. Whilst it has its …

The irrelevance coverage model (ICM) is an extension of the imperfect fault coverage model
(IFCM), which can reduce the risk of uncovered component failures by isolating irrelevant …

Traditional static methods are mostly adopted to analyze the reliability of reactor protection
system (RPS) for nuclear power plant (NPP). However, they cannot characterize its dynamic …

The contribution of wind power systems to the reduction of the impact of fossil fuels sources
has increased more and more during the last decades leading to a greater attention to the …

Over the years, several approaches have been developed for the quantitative analysis of
dynamic fault trees (DFTs). These approaches have strong theoretical and mathematical …

Due to the augmented complexity of the factory on the one hand and the increased
availability of information on the other hand, nowadays it is possible to design models of …

A considerable part of enterprises' total expenses is dedicated to maintenance interventions.
Predictive maintenance (PdM) has appeared as a solution to decrease these costs; …

Fault root cause tracing (FRCT) is critical for the safety assurance of complex
electromechanical systems. However, it is still a challenging task due to the complexity …
