Fault trees are used as a major tool in the study of system safety as well as in reliability and availability studies.The basic methods - construction, logical analysis, probability evaluation and influence study - are described in this book. The following extensions of fault trees, non-coherent fault trees, fault trees with delay and multi-performance fault trees, are also explained. Traditional algorithms for fault tree analysis are presented, as well as more recent algorithms baControl systems, robotics and manufacturing series.Reliability (Engineering)Trees (Graph theory)Electronic books.Reliability (Engineering)Trees (Graph theory)620.00452620/.00452Limnios N(Nikolaos)900137MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910143315203321Fault trees2011009UNINA
