The document discusses various risk analysis techniques used in engineering including fault tree analysis, event tree analysis, and risk benefit analysis. It provides details on each technique, including how fault tree analysis uses Boolean logic to understand system failures, how event tree analysis explores responses to initiating events, and how risk benefit analysis evaluates risks and benefits of different options. Examples are also given to illustrate the application of fault tree analysis and event tree analysis.

Fault tree analysis (FTA) is a top down, deductive failure analysis
Uses Boolean logic to combine a series of lower-level events. Mainly used in the fields of safety & Reliability engineering. To understand how systems can fail To identify the best ways to reduce risk . Used in the aerospace, nuclear power, chemical, pharmaceutical, petrochemical and other high-hazard industries; Used in software engineering for debugging purposes and is closely related to cause-elimination technique used to detect bugs.

Event tree analysis (ETA) is a forward, bottom up, modeling technique for both success and failure Explores responses through a single initiating event Lays a path for assessing probabilities of the outcomes and overall system analysis. ETA is a powerful tool that will identify all consequences of a system that have a probability of occurring after an initiating event ETA can be applied to a wide range of systems including: nuclear power plants, spacecraft, and chemical plants. This Technique may be applied to a system early in the design process to identify potential issues that may arise rather than correcting the issues after they occur. With this forward logic process use of ETA as a tool in risk assessment can help to prevent negative outcomes from occurring Example Event tree Analysis Example Event tree Analysis Event Tree Analysis Event Tree Analysis Safe Exit Risk Benefit Analysis Risk Benefit Analysis Limitations on Risk Benefit Analysis Reducing Risk Assessing Personal Risk Assessing Public Risk Voluntary risk Three Miles Island nuclear Power Plant
