Risk and safety assessments performed on potentially hazardous industrial systems commonly utilise Fault Tree Analysis (FTA) to forecast the probability of system failure. The type of logic for the top event is usually limited to AND and OR gates whi... Read More about Analysis of non-coherent fault trees using ternary decision diagrams.

Fault Tree Analysis (FTA) is widely applied to assess the failure probability of industrial systems. Many computer packages are available which are based on conventional Kinetic Tree Theory methods. When dealing with large (possibly non-coherent) fau... Read More about An enhanced component connection method for conversion of fault trees to binary decision diagrams.
