Due to global climate change, nuclear power plants are increasingly exposed to the threats of extreme natural disasters. In this paper, a resilience engineering approach is applied to tackle all aspects of nuclear safety, spanning from design, operat...

Dynamic and dependent tree theory (D2T2): A framework for the analysis of fault trees with dependent basic events (2022)
Journal Article
Andrews, J., & Tolo, S. (2023). Dynamic and dependent tree theory (D2T2): A framework for the analysis of fault trees with dependent basic events. Reliability Engineering and System Safety, 230, Article 108959. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ress.2022.108959

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 origins back in the 1960s, the assumptions employed in the ma...

Presentation / Conference Contribution
Hamer, M. J., Calvert, G. S., & Neves, L. A. C. (2022, July). An Overview Of Strategic Bridge Life Cycle Modelling On The British Railway. Presented at 11th International Conference on Bridge Maintenance, Safety and Management (IABMAS 2022), Barcelona, Spain

Bridges are critical assets for the safe, reliable, and functional operation of transportation networks. Infrastructure asset managers are responsible for ensuring that these bridges adhere to rigorous safety standards using the finite resources avai...
