Methodologies to strategize the utilization of modeling and simulation for probabilistic risk assessment (PRA) of nuclear power plants: Applications in fire PRA
Based on the literature, one way to conceptualize risk is: Risk={A,C,P_f^*,P(P_f^* ) | U^',K}, where A represents events including initiating events and scenarios; C denotes the consequences of these events (A); P_f^* stands for the estimated frequency of occurrences of events A; P(P_f^* ) is a …
