2 Dynamic Reliability for NPPs Safety Assessment Dynamic reliability Computational Risk Assessment Integrated Deterministic and Probabilistic Safety Assessment are collective names for the variety of different tools which use tightly coupled probabilistic and deterministic approaches to address in a consistent manner: - Uncertainties affecting the NPPs behavior - Effects of timing (dynamics) in the failure behavior of NPPs In PSA2017: 3 technical sessions on Dynamic PSA I-II-III 22 papers on dynamic reliability methods 1 plenary lecture 1 workshop

3 Integrated Deterministic and Probabilistic Safety Analysis (IDPSA) Failure scenarios sequences of failure events that lead the system into failed conditions Safe Scenarios sequences of failure events that keep the system into safe operational conditions

4 Integrated Deterministic and Probabilistic Safety Analysis (IDPSA) Failure scenarios sequences of failure events that lead the system into failed conditions Prime Implicants (PI) minimal sequences of component failures that lead the system into failure Safe Scenarios sequences of failure events that keep the system into safe operational conditions

5 Integrated Deterministic and Probabilistic Safety Analysis (IDPSA) Failure scenarios sequences of failure events that lead the system into failed conditions Prime Implicants (PI) minimal sequences of component failures that lead the system into failure Near Misses dangerous sequences of failure events that incidentally keep the system into safe but endangered and insecure operational conditions Safe Scenarios sequences of failure events that keep the system into safe operational conditions

25 Ensemble approach: multiple classifiers The stand-alone SSSOM The MVL sequence is assigned to the class to which the BMU belongs to

26 Ensemble approach: multiple classifiers Geometric baricenters Baricenter based SSSOM The MVL sequence is assigned to the class with the smallest distance from the baricenter, i.e., to the class with the baricenter most similar to the MVL sequence.

27 Ensemble approach: multiple classifiers Minimum neurons: neurons with minimum weight vector Minimum neuron based SSSOM The MVL sequence is assigned to the class with the smallest distance from the minimum neuron, i.e., to the class with the minimum neuron most similar to the MVL sequence.

28 Ensemble approach: multiple classifiers Maximum neurons: neurons with maximum weight vector Maximum neuron based SSSOM The MVL sequence is assigned to the class with the smallest distance from the maximum neuron, i.e., to the class with the maximum neuron most similar to the MVL sequence.

29 Ensemble approach: multiple classifiers MQE based SSSOM 7 6 NMs PDF FAILED PDF MQE MQE 14 PIs SAFE PDF PDF MQE MQE MQE g empirical probability density functions: the larger the value of the g-th PDF, the more the probability that a MVL scenario with a specific MQE belongs to class g.

31 SSSOMs performances Precision: ability to not include MVL sequences of other classes in the g-th class Sensitivity: ability to correctly recognize MVL sequences belonging to the g-th class Specificity: ability of each g-th class to reject the MVL sequences of all the others Stand-alone SSSOM Maximum neuron-based SSSOM

34 SSSOMs performances Precision: ability to not include MVL sequences of other classes in the g-th class Sensitivity: ability to correctly recognize MVL sequences belonging to the g-th class Specificity: ability of each g-th class to reject the MVL sequences of all the others Stand-alone SSSOM

35 The ENSEMBLE approach MVL Stand alone SSSOM Baricenter based SSSOM Minimum neuron based SSSOM Maximum neuron based SSSOM MQE based SSSOM Outcome 1 Outcome 2 Outcome 3 Outcome 4 Outcome 5 Locally weighted based on the single SSSOM performances (precision, sensitivity and specificity) The MVL is assigned to the class with the lowest local (class) error

36 RESULTS (training) Correctly assigned MVL sequences Total NMs PIs Stand-alone SSSOM Ensemble of locally weighted SSSOMs Results are satisfactory for the operational risk quantification Total number of correctly assigned scenarios increases with respect to the stand-alone SSSOM The number of correctly assigned NMs and PIs scenarios decreases, but: PIs normally are made of many component failures with low probability of occurrence not accounted risk is very low; NMs are either classified as safe (with no extra risk quantification being both safe and NMs leading to safe states) or failed scenarios (with a conservative overestimation of the system operational risk).

37 RESULTS (test) 2000 unknown sequences (with random components failure times) Correctly assigned sequences Total NMs PIs Truth 8 11 Ensemble of locally weighted SSSOMs Results are satisfactory for the operational risk quantification All NMs and PIs are correctly classified The wrongly assigned sequences are SAFE sequences that are (conservatively) assigned to the FAILURE class (with a conservative overestimation of the system operational risk).

38 Conclusions PIs Failure Near Misses Safe An IDPSA scenarios post-processing method based on an ensemble of SSSOMs has been proposed that is able to comprehensively deal with all the classes at the same time (safe, failed, NMs, PIs), applies to the classification of unknown sequences and whose interpretation of the provided classification results is simpler than other methods, thanks to an intuitive visual interface, which could be useful also for dynamic monitoring of the system.
