In this paper, a multistate Bayesian Network (BN) is proposed to model and evaluate the
functional performance of safety barriers in Oil and Gas plants. The nodes of the BN …

A methodology has been developed to evaluate the reliability of passive systems
characterised by a moving fluid and whose operation is based on thermal–hydraulic (TH) …

Recently, the melting of Arctic sea ice and development of maritime technology are enabling
the regular voyages in Arctic waters. However, the Arctic maritime transportation system …

Passive safety systems, which do not require external input to operate, are widely used to
enhance the inherent safety in new generation nuclear power plants. A challenging issue …

In the light of epistemic uncertainties affecting the model of a thermal–hydraulic (T–H)
passive system and the numerical values of its parameters, the system may find itself in …

Reliability assessment of passive safety systems is one of the important issues, since safety
of advanced nuclear reactors rely on several passive features. In this context, a few …

Thermal–Hydraulic (T–H) passive safety systems are potentially more reliable than active
systems, and for this reason are expected to improve the safety of nuclear power plants …

Passive systems, operating on the principle of natural circulation, are adopted extensively in
advanced and innovative nuclear reactor designs. Though passive systems are adjudged to …

The structural characteristics of transportation networks (SCTN) under sustainable
development goals are crucial for the development and construction of urban …

Data Adequacy (DA) assessment of experimental databases must be performed to control
the impact of user effects on the results provided by the Thermal-Hydraulic (TH) codes …
