보통 시스템은 신뢰도 계산을 위하여 graph나 fault tree(FT)등으로 그 시스템의 신뢰도 특성을 표현하게 된다. 전산망이나 교통망등은 보통 하나의 부품이 graph의 한선에 1:1로 대응하는 linear graph로 표현되나 화학공장이나 원자력 발전소의 신뢰성 분석을 위하여 쓰이는 FT는 보통 하나의 부품 또는 사건이 여러 곳에서 나타나는 non linear graph이다. (중략)

Fault tree construction for hazard assessment requires so much time and labor, so it is very difficult to be applied to the large scale chemical plant. For the synthesis of fault tree in chemical processes, this study represents the cause-effect relations between process variables by using the Signed Directed Graph(SDG), and has synthesized Fault Tree(FT) by searching the causes of fault events using the general operator and loop operators defined corresponding to path characteristics on the SDG.

배전계통은 수용가에 전력을 공급하는 설비로서 계통의 안정적인 운영을 위하여 배전계통의 신뢰도를 산정하는 것은 중요한 의미를 갖는다. 본 논문에서는 배전계통을 구성하는 설비와 수용가의 전력 공급 유무에 따른 신뢰도를 산정하였다. Fault Tree Analysis(FTA)는 시스템의 고장을 해석하는 방법으로 사용된다. 시스템의 고장을 발생시키는 사건원인을 분석하여 Fault Tree(FT: 고장목)를 작성하고, 시스템을 구성하는 설비들의 고장확률 계산을 통하여 전 시스템의 신뢰성을 산정할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 Relex 7.7 프로그램을 사용하여 FTA를 수행하였다.

In general, risk management consists of a series of processes or steps including risk identification, risk analysis, risk evaluation, risk mitigation measures, and risk re-evaluation. In this paper, potential risk factors that occur in shield TBM tunnels were investigated based on many previous case studies and questionaries to tunnel experts. The risk factors were classified as geological, design or construction management features. Fault Tree was set up by dividing all feasible risks into four groups that associated with: cutter; machine confinement; mucking (driving) and segments. From the Fault Tree Analysis (FTA), 12 risk items were identified and the probability of failure of each chosen risk item was obtained.

The conventional fault tree and reliability analysis gives in many cases insufficient information concerning the relative frequencies of hazard events. This stems from that the basic events are not stationary and ergodic, and therefore the tolerances of the induced and top events cannot be calculated reliably based on the classical probability theory. To overcome this difficulty, the paper considers the relative frequencies of the basic events as fuzzy numbers and uses instead of probability, possible considerations for evaluating the mean values and tolerances of the top events. The possibility distribution of the basic events can be approximated based on heuristic considerations. This paper shows the use of these operators for constructing fault trees. The use of the method for numerical calculation is demonstrated on a field safety problem.

In this paper, from making an electrical fire which is thought to be the most damaging among potential dangers as a top event, minimal cut sets (MCS) about it were analyzed. For this, components of a power substation were classified into 15 items. Failure rates and modes were extracted based on Korea Electrical Safety Corporation, IEEE Gold Book, and RAC. To analyze the top event (an electrical fire), main events were assorted into "safety devices for overcurrent" and "ampere meter of detecter". Failure of components was divided into failure of VCB, COS, and MCCB. A fault tree was composed of 3 AND gate, 5 OR gates and 17 basic events. Overlapped events among the basic events are things which occur from relevant components. They were attached to the tree by distinguishing identifiers. In case of FT, two minimal cut sets of "IO_METER", "MF_METER", "DO_MCCB" and "IO_METER", "MF_METER", "DO_VCB" take 46% of electrical fires. Therefore, about basic events which are included in the top two minimum cut sets, strict control is necessary.

For the fault tree analysis (FTA) analysis of the packaged hydrogen filling station, the composition of the charging station was analyzed and the fault tree (FT) diagram was prepared. FT diagrams were created by dividing the causes of events into external factors and internal factors with the hydrogen event as the top event. The external factors include the effects of major disasters caused by natural disasters and external factors as OR gates. Internal factors are divided into tube tailer, compressor & storage tank, and dispenser, which are composed of mistakes in operation process and causes of accidents caused by parts leakage. In this study, the purpose was to improve the hydrogen station. The subjects of this study were domestic packaged hydrogen stations and FTA study was conducted based on the previous studies, failure mode & effect analysis (FMEA) and hazard & operability study (HAZOP). Top event as a hydrogen leaking event and constructed the flow of events based on the previous study. Refer to "Off shore and onshore reliability data 6th edition", "European Industry Reliability Data Bank", technique for human error rate prediction (THERP) for reliability data. We hope that this study will help to improve the safety and activation of the hydrogen station.

Recently, various dynamic risk analysis methods have been suggested for estimating the risk index by predicting the possibility of accidents and damage. It is necessary to maintain and support the safety system for responding to accidents by continuously updating the probability of accidents and the results of accidents, which are quantitative standards of ship risk. In this study, when a LNG leakage that may occur in the LN G Fuel Gas Supply System (FGSS) room during LN G bunkering operation, a reliability physical model was prepared by the change in monitoring data as physical parameters to estimate the accident probability. The scenario in which LNG leakage occur were configured with FT (Fault Tree), and the coefficient of the covariate model and Weibull distribution was estimated based on the monitoring data. The possibility of an LNG leakage, which is the top event of FT, was confirmed by changes in time and monitoring data. A method for estimating the LNG leakage based on the reliability physical analysis is proposed, which supports fast decision-making by identifying the potential LNG leakage at the accident.

점점 과학의 고도화가 이루어지면서 산업 현장에서 사용하는 장비나 플랜트의 대형화, 복잡화가 이루어지고 있다. 이에 이러한 시스템들의 정량적 위험성 평가가 요구하기 시작했고, 이를 계산하기 위해서 ETA, FTA, CCA등 여러 가지 방법들이 사용되고 있다. 그 중에서도 가장 보편적으로 많이 사용하는 방법으로 FTA(Fault Tree Analysis)를 손꼽을 수 있다. 관찰하는 시스템이 커지는 경우 FTA를 수행하기 위해서는 복잡한 계산 과정을 거치면서 많은 항의 계산을 하게 된다. 이러한 계산시간을 줄이기 위해서 많은 노력들이 있었으며 이중 하나는 FT를 graph(acyclic nonliner graph)로 변형시킨 후 graph이론을 사용하여 신뢰도를 계산하는 것이다.

This study is about the quantitative safety assessment of hydrogen station in Korea operating with on-site type. This was written by background information that before qualitative safety assessment to write. For the qualitative safety assessment method, the study used FMEA(failure mode & effect analysis) and HAZOP(hazard & operability), and adopted the FTA(fault tree analysis) as the quantitative safety assessment method. To write the FTA, we wrote FT by Top event that hydrogen leakage can be called most serious accident of hydrogen station. Each base event collect reliability data by reliability data handbook, THERP-HRA and estimation of the engineering. Assessment looked at the high frequency and the possible risk through Gate, Importance, m.cutsets analysis.
