Abstract
AbstractCompeting failures are time domain contention situations between the propagated failures (PFs) that originate from dependent components and the failure isolation caused by the trigger component. The methods based on combinatorial analysis commonly used in the analysis of competing failures require a complicated formula derivation and model reduction process. This paper proposes an integrated model based on generalized stochastic Petri nets (GSPNs) for analyzing the competing failures in the system, and further considers the effect of common cause failures (CCFs). The proposed modeling method inherits the advantages of GSPNs and provides a simplified method to compute the reliability of systems, which affect by competing failures and CCFs. Finally, the proposed method is applied in the flight control system (FCS) and demonstrated by the efficient decomposition and aggregation (EDA) method and combinatorial analysis method.
