RISK ANALYSIS TECHNIQUES OF OIL AND GAS PIPELINE
The safety of pipelines that transport energy has become an important and controversial issue with the general public. The main hazard for safe transportation of substances is a pipeline failure taken as a loss of its tightness and release of the ...

Automated fault tree learning from continuous-valued sensor data: a case study on domestic heaters [PDF]
Many industrial sectors have been collecting big sensor data. With recent technologies for processing big data, companies can exploit this for automatic failure detection and prevention. We propose the first completely automated method for failure analysis, machine-learning fault trees from raw observational data with continuous variables.

Abstract Background and purpose For postoperative breast cancer patients, deformable image registration (DIR) is challenged due to the large deformations and non‐correspondence caused by tumor resection and clip insertion. To deal with it, three metrics (fiducial‐, region‐, and intensity‐based) were jointly used in DIR algorithm for improved accuracy ...

Analysis of comprehensive sensitivity evaluation of aircraft system based on FTA-AHP
Aiming at the lack of unified evaluation index for the sensitivity analysis of fault tree of the system, the Analytic Hierarchy Process(AHP) is introduced into Fault Tree Analysis(FTA), and an FTA-AHP method is proposed to generate the comprehensive ...

Combination of component fault trees and Markov chains to analyze complex, software-controlled systems [PDF]
Fault Tree analysis is a widely used failure analysis methodology to assess a system in terms of safety or reliability in many industrial application domains. However, with Fault Tree methodology there is no possibility to express a temporal sequence of events or state-dependent behavior of software-controlled systems.

Model-Based Reliability and Safety: Reducing the Complexity of Safety Analyses Using Component Fault Trees [PDF]
The importance of mission or safety critical software systems in many application domains of embedded systems is continuously growing, and so is the effort and complexity for reliability and safety analysis. Model driven development is currently one of the key approaches to cope with increasing development complexity, in general.

Data‐driven performance metrics for neural network learning
Summary Effectiveness of data‐driven neural learning in terms of both local mimima trapping and convergence rate is addressed. Such issues are investigated in a case study involving the training of one‐hidden‐layer feedforward neural networks with the extended Kalman filter, which reduces the search for the optimal network parameters to a state ...

ALFRED: a methodology to enable component fault trees for layered architectures [PDF]
Identifying drawbacks or insufficiencies in terms of safety is important also in early development stages of safety critical systems. In industry, development artefacts such as components or units, are often reused from existing artefacts to save time and costs.

INCLUDING SYSTEMATIC FAULTS INTO FAULT TREE ANALYSIS [PDF]
: Fault Tree Analysis (FTA) is a technique widely used for fault forecasting of physical systems. Although FTA is considered a well established safety analysis technique, paradoxically classical Fault Trees include only random faults. However, in modem automated systems, undesirable events arise not only from random hardware faults but also from ...
