Preface
The PSA studies were initially developed to be used for nuclear power plants, starting from elements of reliability analyses in other areas as for instance aviation. Following the initial period of defining the method, mainly after the TMI accident, PSA methodologies used for NPP became widely spread. PSA is now very well defined by a series of standards. The goal of this book is to present selected topics in PSA, as identified during the last period of more than four decades of use. The book is structure orien
