Fuzzy evidence theory and Bayesian networks for process systems risk analysis (2018)
Journal Article
Yazdi, M., & Kabir, S. (2018). Fuzzy evidence theory and Bayesian networks for process systems risk analysis. Human and Ecological Risk Assessment, 1-30. https://doi.org/10.1080/10807039.2018.1493679

Quantitative risk assessment (QRA) approaches systematically evaluate the likelihood, impacts, and risk of adverse events. QRA using fault tree analysis (FTA) is based on the assumptions that failure events have crisp probabilities and they are stati...

Uncertainty-aware dynamic reliability analysis framework for complex systems (2018)
Journal Article
Kabir, S., Yazdi, M., Aizpurua, J. I., & Papadopoulos, Y. (2018). Uncertainty-aware dynamic reliability analysis framework for complex systems. IEEE Access, 6, Article ACCESS2843166. https://doi.org/10.1109/ACCESS.2018.2843166

Critical technological systems exhibit complex dynamic characteristics such as time-dependent behaviour, functional dependencies among events, sequencing and priority of causes that may alter the effects of failure. Dynamic fault trees (DFTs) have be... Read More about Uncertainty-aware dynamic reliability analysis framework for complex systems.

A review of applications of fuzzy sets to safety and reliability engineering (2018)
Journal Article
Kabir, S., & Papadopoulos, Y. (2018). A review of applications of fuzzy sets to safety and reliability engineering. International Journal of Approximate Reasoning, 100, 29-55. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijar.2018.05.005

Safety and reliability are rigorously assessed during the design of dependable systems. Probabilistic risk assessment (PRA) processes are comprehensive, structured and logical methods widely used for this purpose. PRA approaches include, but not limi...

Model-based assessment of energy-efficiency, dependability, and cost-effectiveness of waste heat recovery systems onboard ship (2018)
Journal Article
Lampe, J., Rüde, E., Papadopoulos, Y., & Kabir, S. (2018). Model-based assessment of energy-efficiency, dependability, and cost-effectiveness of waste heat recovery systems onboard ship. Ocean engineering, 157, 234-250. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.oceaneng.2018.03.062

Technological systems are not merely designed with a narrow function in mind. Good designs typically aim at reducing operational costs, e.g. through achieving high energy efficiency and improved dependability (i.e. reliability, availability and maint...

Dynamic system safety analysis in HiP-HOPS with Petri Nets and Bayesian Networks (2018)
Journal Article
Papadopoulos, Y., Walker, M., & Kabir, S. (2018). Dynamic system safety analysis in HiP-HOPS with Petri Nets and Bayesian Networks. Safety science, 105, 55-70. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ssci.2018.02.001

© 2018 Elsevier Ltd Dynamic systems exhibit time-dependent behaviours and complex functional dependencies amongst their components. Therefore, to capture the full system failure behaviour, it is not enough to simply determine the consequences of diff...
