Reliability assessment of marine floating structures using Bayesian network

TL;DR: A novel methodology to conduct reliability analysis of moored floating structures using Bayesian network (BN) is proposed and can be employed to mitigate associated risk with marine structures brought about by stochastic hydrodynamic loads.

Understanding industrial safety: Comparing Fault tree, Bayesian network, and FRAM approaches

TL;DR: In this article, three approaches to safety are examined: fault trees (FT), Bayesian networks (BN), and the Functional Resonance Analysis Method (FRAM), and a case study of a propane feed control system is used to apply these methods.

Improving the analysis of dependable systems by mapping fault trees into Bayesian networks

TL;DR: It is shown that any FT can be directly mapped into a BN and that basic inference techniques on the latter may be used to obtain classical parameters computed from the former, i.e. reliability of the Top Event or of any sub-system, criticality of components, etc.
