Abstract:
Fault tree methodology is the most widespread risk assessment
tool by which one is able to predict - in principle - the outcome of an event
whenever it is reduced to simpler ones by the logic operations conjunction
and disjunction according to the basics of Boolean algebra. The object
of this work is to present an algorithm by which, using the corresponding
computer code, one is able to predict - in practice - the outcome of an event
whenever its fault tree is given in the usual form.
