Risk management microcomputer-based program

  • 1. Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY

Description

A risk management program utilizing commercial spreadsheet software for microcomputers has been developed. Information from a nuclear plant probabilistic risk assessment (PRA) is abstracted and transferred to a personal computer where it is more accessible. Fault tree, event tree, system descriptions and selected PRA resulted can be rapidly retrieved and examined. Changes due to backfits and plant modifications can be readily evaluated and their implications to total risk can be seen
