New Algorithms for Solving Minimum Path Sets of Fault Tree Analysis and its Applications

Article Preview

Abstract:

With analyzing the shortcomings of "Success Tree" method, the article proposed two new algorithms which base on the basic principles of Boolean algebra and Fussell determinant method respectively to replace the "success tree" method to solve the minimum path sets of fault tree. Combined with the simple and the complex examples' results, the correctness and effectiveness of new algorithms were verified. Especially for the large and complex fault trees, the solving process of these new algorithms can be simplified sharply. Furthermore, the new algorithms could provide the algorithm support for the realization of quantifying the qualitative analysis, modeling the quantitative analysis, and computerizing the model analysis.
