Comparison of event tree/fault tree and convolution approaches in calculating station blackout risk in a nuclear power plant

Station blackout (SBO) risk is one of the most significant contributors to nuclear power plant risk. In this paper, the sequence probability formulas derived by the convolution approach are compared with those derived by the conventional event tree/fault tree (ET/FT) approach for the SBO situation i...
