Xiaopeng Li

Title: New Ph.D. Candidate Self-introduction

Speaker: Behnaz Hosseinnia

Abstract:: Introduce herself and talk about her previous research project at Safety and Security Science group at TU Delft, the Netherlands. She will also give a brief introductionofherPhD research topic at RAMS group.

About Speaker: NewPhD student within RAMS group. She received her master degree in chemical engineering (minor: HSE) and did her undergraduate studies in Safety and Technical Protection Engineering in Petroleum University of Technology (Iran) with the first rank honor. In her M.Sc.thesis she has studied the application of fire and explosion modeling, failure probability analysis and quantitative risk-based decision making in petroleum pipelines emergency response planning. Besides the academic experience, two internships with National Iranian Oil Company (NIOC) and four-year work with engineering consultancies have enabled her to combine the technical knowledge with hands-on experience in risk analysis, process safety and accidents consequence modeling. From 2016, she worked as a researcher at the Safety and Security Science group in TU Delft, the Netherlands. Her research project was funded by LDE (Leiden. Delft. Erasmus) Centre for Safety and Security and focused on developing an effective decision-making tool for multi-plant emergency response planning against terrorist attacks in the chemical industrial areas.

Speaker: Xiaopeng Li ( Exchange Ph.D. candidate)

About Speaker: He is from College of Management and Economics, Tianjin University, China. He will introduce himself and his previous research works on warranty management in Tianjin University and his research plan in NTNU.

Title: Systems-Theoretic Process Analysis (STPA) for subsea systems

Abstract:

Systems-Theoretic Process Analysis (STPA) is a recently developed hazard identification technique that is based on control and systems theory. Previous studies on STPA emphasizes two major strengths of the method: (1) STPA provides a systematic top-down approach that enables early identification of system flaws, and (2) STPA covers a wider scope of hazards compared to traditional methods. Despite these advantages, there are only a limited number of studies that have applied the method to subsea systems. It is therefore of interest to investigate how STPA can be used to formulate new or verify existing requirements for safety-critical systems for subsea facilities. 

The contents of the presentation are

1) Introduction to STPA

2) Ongoing STPA studies in RAMS group

3) STPA to subsea gas compression system - ESREL 2018 conference

4) STPA to isolation of subsea wells - OTC 2018 conference

About speaker:

Hyungju Kim is a postdoctoral fellow at RAMS group, MTP, NTNU. His research topic is new control and safety philosophies of subsea systems, which is a part of SFI SUBPRO project. He completed his Ph.D. in RAMS at NTNU, and earned his Master's and Bachelor's degree in Naval Architecture and Ocean Engineering at Seoul National University. Before he started his Ph.D. at NTNU, he worked for SAMSUNG Heavy Industries for seven years, as a naval architect.

Title: Reliability Analysis of Looped Systems

Abstract: It is well widely assumed (and true) that reliability block diagrams are equivalent to fault trees, although this equivalence is formally established in no textbook. A reliability block diagram can be seen as an oriented graph: blocks are represented by nodes and connections between blocks by edges of the graph. This graph is oriented, contains no loop (is acyclic), has a unique source node s and a unique target node t. The system described by the reliability block diagram works if and only if there is a working s-t path in the graph, i.e. s-t path along which all nodes are working (only nodes can fail, edges are assumed to be perfectly reliable). An interesting question is: what does happen if we accept loops, i.e. if we consider reliability networks rather than reliability block diagrams? Assessing the reliability of networks is indeed of practical importance as most infrastructures can be seen as networks. Nevertheless, reliability networks are only seldom used as a modeling tool. In this seminar, the main mathematical results explaining why it is so and present several algorithms to solve the problem will be recalled.
