Probabilistic Fault Tree Analysis of Refinery Plant Components subject to Earthquake Scenarios

The aim of this paper is to present a probabilistic framework useful for the risk assessment of refinery plant components located in areas prone to seismic hazard. The classical quantitative risk analysis (QRA) in fact allows to evaluate a mean frequency value of a potential release as a function of...
