摘要
A failure propagation analysis method was developed for safety systems having multiple interactive sub-systems. Two models are given based on min-plus and max-plus algebra to describe the failure propagation and control processes. Iterative solutions for both models give the final hazardous output disclosure time for specific failures. Unlike other failure propagation models, this method describes the asymmetry in the failure propagation mechanism and presents a calculational method for the hazardous incident time for interactive safety systems. This method is applied to a conceptual CTCS system to demonstrate its effectiveness. © 2016, Press of Tsinghua University. All right reserved.
