Simulation Fault Tree Diagram

A fault tree diagram follows a top-down structure and represents a graphical model of the pathways within a system that can lead to a foreseeable, undesirable loss event (or a failure). The pathways connect contributory events and conditions using standard logic symbols. BlockSim’s RBDs and fault trees can be configured as analytical diagrams or simulation diagrams. Simulation diagrams can take into account repair and restoration actions, including behaviors of crews, spare part pools, throughput, etc. Using discrete event simulation, highly complex scenarios involving a multitude of probabilistic events, such as corrective maintenance, preventive maintenance, inspections, imperfect repairs, crew response times, spare part availability, etc. can be analyzed.
