Abstract

Fault tree analysis has proven to be extremely useful in studying large scale systems in both industry and research. Due to the size and complexity of most trees, it has been necessary to develop computer programs for efficient analysis. Vessely and Narum developed a computer package called PREP and KITT in 1970. In 1974, Fussell, Henry and Marshall produced a program called MOCUS. The computer programs presented in this paper perform functions similar to the PREP and MOCUS codes, though the methodology and efficiency are greatly advanced. In addition, this paper provides a basic understanding of the terminology and concepts of fault trees, discusses planned objectives, and gives some insight into a topic called 'Tree Trimming.' All concepts and explanations are illustrated by example.
