DYLAM: a computer code for event sequences and consequence spectrum analysis

  • 1. Studio MESA, Milano, Italy

Description

The paper describes the DYLAM (Dynamic L.A.M.) computer code for the analysis of temporal incident sequences. The code is based on the ESCS methodology, which has been developed to take into account dynamic interactions between the physics and the logical states of a system. Starting from failure-dependent component analytical models, the consequence spectrum in terms of quantified TOP events such as temperatures, pressures etc., is automatically obtained by the solution of the associated parametric equation system. An application example is given with reference to modelling of human intervention and recovery
