Abstract

A computer aided reliability analysis system, in which an interactive graphic terminal can be used, to construct, modify, analyze, and store fault trees is developed. The system, SUPKIT-n, a computer aided fault tree analysis system has functions for fault tree automated construction (PREP) and fault tree graphics (GRAPH). The former automatically generates a fault tree by a hierachical structure based on system configuration and specifications, and/or from failure information, while the latter indicates, modifies, and evaluates the fault tree through CAD/CAM terminals. Therefore, PREP decreases man-hours and mistake occurrences in constructing fault trees and GRAPH enables users to evaluate system reliability and to compare system design plans easily and quickly.
