Infinite Virtual Stoa (2018)
Conference Proceeding
Torrao, L., Papadopoulos, Y., & Mckie, D. (2018). Infinite Virtual Stoa. In XXI GENERATIVE ART 2018, proceedings of XXI Generative Art conference (183-194)

Stoicism is a philosophy that considers the object of life to be ataraxia (αταραξία), a state of psychological stability which is undisturbed by exposure to phenomena and circumstances that lie outside one's control. Such circumstances may include il... Read More about Infinite Virtual Stoa.

TIMAEUS: Three-dimensional Illuminated Media Augmented Sculptures (2018)
Conference Proceeding

TIMAEUS is a digital art studio environment that enables creation of personalised 3-dimensional sculptures built with expanding spherical volumes or interconnected tetrahedra and possibly other atomic blocks in the future. These sculptures can be cus... Read More about TIMAEUS: Three-dimensional Illuminated Media Augmented Sculptures.

Explicit Modelling and Treatment of Repair in Prediction of Dependability (2018)
Journal Article
Aizpurua, J. I., Papadopoulos, Y., & Merle, G. (2018). Explicit Modelling and Treatment of Repair in Prediction of Dependability. IEEE Transactions on Dependable and Secure Computing, 17(6), 1147-1162. https://doi.org/10.1109/TDSC.2018.2857810

In engineering practice, multiple repair actions are considered carefully by designers, and their success or failure defines further control actions and the evolution of the system state. Such treatment is not fully supported by the current state-of-... Read More about Explicit Modelling and Treatment of Repair in Prediction of Dependability.

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...

Timaeus: A digital art studio inspired by antiquity (2018)
Journal Article
Torrao, L., Papadopoulos, Y., & Mckie, D. (2018). Timaeus: A digital art studio inspired by antiquity. Generative art science and technology hard journal,

This project was motivated as an exploration of the capabilities provided by new digital media for creativity, art creation and art therapy. In the ancient Greek world, téchnē, the word for art, used to refer to both art and technology. The expressio... Read More about Timaeus: A digital art studio inspired by antiquity.

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...

A Study of Automatic Allocation of Automotive Safety Requirements in Two Modes: Components and Failure Modes (2018)
Journal Article
Parker, D., Godof, A., Papadopoulos, Y., & Saintis, L. (2018). A Study of Automatic Allocation of Automotive Safety Requirements in Two Modes: Components and Failure Modes. SAE Technical Papers, 2018-April, https://doi.org/10.4271/2018-01-1076

ISO 26262 describes a safety engineering approach in which the safety of a system is considered from the early stages of design through a process of elicitation and allocation of system safety requirements. These are expressed as automotive safety in... Read More about A Study of Automatic Allocation of Automotive Safety Requirements in Two Modes: Components and Failure Modes.

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...
