Enabling safety-informed design decision making through simulation, reasoning and analysis

Creator:

Jensen, David Charles

Abstract:

While many organizations claim to "put safety first," safety is rarely considered early in the design process when system-level architectural decisions are made. Instead, system design follows an abstraction-to-detail process to first meet functional and then performance requirements. Following this process, safety assurance occurs in the later stages of design...

Design analysis using function-based failure propagation in failed system states

Creator:

Jensen, David Charles

Abstract:

For safety critical complex systems, reliability and risk analysis are important design steps. Implementing these analyzes early in the design stage can reduce costs associated with redesign and provide important information on design viability. In the past several years, various research methods have been presented in the design community to...
