The prevailing research on forecasting surface deformations within mining territories predominantly hinges on parameter-centric numerical models, which manifest constraints concerning applicability and parameter reliability. Although Multi-Temporal InSAR

Quantification of Simultaneous-AND Gates in Temporal Fault Trees [PDF]
Fault Tree Analysis has been a cornerstone of safety-critical systems for many years. It has seen various extensions to enable it to analyse dynamic behaviours exhibited by modern systems with redundant components. However, none of these extended FTA approaches provide much support for modelling situations where events have to be "nearly simultaneous",

OBTAINING TEMPORAL AND TIMED PROPERTIES OF LOGIC CONTROLLERS FROM FAULT TREE ANALYSIS [PDF]
One of the prerequisites for formal verification of logic controllers using model-checking is the formalization of properties to verify. The work presented in this paper proposes a method to elaborate the formal properties of a logic controller from a Fault Tree Analysis (FTA).

Quantification of Temporal Fault Trees Based on Fuzzy Set Theory [PDF]
Fault tree analysis (FTA) has been modified in different ways to make it capable of performing quantitative and qualitative safety analysis with temporal gates, thereby overcoming its limitation in capturing sequential failure behaviour. However, for many systems, it is often very difficult to have exact failure rates of components due to increased ...

An Automated Fault Tree Generation Approach With Fault Configuration Based on Model Checking
Fault tree generation technology is a key issue for safety analysis of large complex systems. Traditional safety analysis methods usually describe the origin, propagation, or concrete behavior of the fault and do not portray the constraints between ...

Integrated Level 1–Level 2 decommissioning probabilistic risk assessment for boiling water reactors
This article describes an integrated Level 1–Level 2 probabilistic risk assessment (PRA) methodology to evaluate the radiological risk during postulated accident scenarios initiated during the decommissioning phase of a typical Mark I containment boiling

“Accidental” Encounters with the Ottoman Armenians in Contemporary Turkey
This essay discusses a set of inadvertent encounters with the late 19th and early 20th century persecution of the Ottoman Armenians in light of Rosalind Morris’ notion of “accident,” which implicates the traumatic event as not just a distant, isolated ...

Reliability Analysis of Dynamic Systems by Translating Temporal Fault Trees into Bayesian Networks [PDF]
Classical combinatorial fault trees can be used to assess combinations of failures but are unable to capture sequences of faults, which are important in complex dynamic systems. A number of proposed techniques extend fault tree analysis for dynamic systems.

ARATech2013 – a Web-based Tool for Risk Assessment
The risk assessment analysis is perceived as the most important stage in preparation of the major accident prevention documentation in accordance with the Directive 96/82/EC. The risk assessment alone is a complex process and several procedures and their

As embedded systems become increasingly complex, traditional reliability analysis methods based on text alone are no longer adequate for meeting the requirements of rapid and accurate quantitative analysis of system reliability.
