Abstract

The Abnormal Occurrences Reporting System (AORS) of the Commission of the European Communities is a data bank that contains homogenized information on safety-related events that have occurred in nuclear power plants in Europe and the United States, covering -- 780 yr of total reactor operation from 1969 to 1985. The use and analysis potential of this information system are illustrated, particularly with respect to the support it gives to incident analysts and probabilistic safety assessment (PSA) practitioners. As an example, attention is focused on a particular methodology for using the incident data during the modeling stage of a PSA study, or more generally, in the course of any type of incident analysis.
