Accident Sequence Dynamic Simulation Versus Event Trees

THE PAPER COMPARES THE EVENT TREE TECHNIQUES USED FOR IDENTIFYING AND PROBABILISTICALLY QUANTIFYING INCIDENT OCCURRENCES WITH DYNAMIC TECHNIQUES WHICH BETTER TAKE INTO ACCOUNT TIMING OF EVENTS. IN PAARTICULAR DYLAM IS SHOWN TO PRESENT SIGNIFICANT ADVANTAGES SINCE IT MAKES POSSIBLE A SIMULTANEOUS ANALYSIS BOTH OF THE EVOLUTION OF THE PROCESS PHYSICS AND OF THE SYSTEMS PROBABILISTIC PERFORMANCES
