2025:01 Safety Concept Evaluation with Failure Tolerance Analysis
SSM perspective Background One of the most important design principles to achieve high safety function dependability is the use of redundancy to be single-fault tolerant. In turn, redundancies become effective by applying additional design principles such as physical and functional separation and diversity. License holders of nuclear power reactors must demonstrate that requirements are met,...
