Comprehensive risk evaluation of long-distance oil and gas transportation pipelines using a fuzzy Petri net model

TL;DR: It is verified that the risk evaluation method based on the FPN model applies for the long-distance oil and gas transportation pipelines and provides some decision support for the risk management of theOil and gas pipelines.

Failure probability analysis of the urban buried gas pipelines using Bayesian networks

TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented an advanced two-step approach to analyze failure probabilities of the urban buried gas pipeline. And the results indicate that this approach is feasible and reasonable which can assist in identifying safety critical factors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Decision support analysis for safety control in complex project environments based on Bayesian Networks

TL;DR: The safety control process is extended to the entire life cycle of risk-prone events in model application, rather than restricted to pre-accident control, but during-construction continuous and post-accidents control are included.

Risk analysis of dust explosion scenarios using Bayesian networks.

TL;DR: In this study, a methodology has been proposed for risk analysis of dust explosion scenarios based on Bayesian network and benefits from a bow-tie diagram to better represent the logical relationships existing among contributing factors and consequences of dust explosions.

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.
