593--11 (CERN)

This seminar will address Reliability, Availability, Maintainability and Safety (RAMS) engineering concepts to guarantee availability and safety of critical equipments, in particular in a high technology and R&D environment. Applications of these concepts will be presented. 14h00-14h30 Introduction to Reliability, Availability, Maintainability and Safety activities: general introduction to RAMS, basic definitions, integration of RAMS in a large project. 14h40-16h10 RAMS methodologies: - Functional Analysis methodologies - Preliminary Hazard Analysis - Failure Mode Effects and Criticality Analysis (FMECA) - Fault Tree Analysis - Use of standards for Reliability predictions - Reliability Block Diagrams for a system - Advanced models, e.g. Markov's Graphs 16h30-17h00 Presentation of the activities domains covered by LIGERON S.A. and by the Institut LIGERON S.A.
