This book provides basics and selected advanced insights on how to
generate reliability, safety and resilience within (socio)
technical system developments. The focus is on working definitions,
fundamental development processes, safety development processes and
analytical methods on how to support such schemes. The method
families of Hazard Analyses, Failure Modes and Effects Analysis and
Fault Tree Analysis are explained in detail. Further main topics
include semiformal graphical system modelling, requirements types,
hazard log, reliability prediction standards, techniques and
measures for reliable hardware and software with respect to
systematic and statistical errors, and combination options of
methods. The book is based on methods as applied during numerous
applied research and development projects and the support and
auditing of such projects, including highly safety-critical
automated and autonomous systems. Numerous questions and answers
challenge students and practitioners.
The book introduces basic risk concepts and then goes on to discuss
risk management and analysis processes and steps. The main emphasis
is on methods that fulfill the requirements of one or several risk
management steps. The focus is on risk analysis methods including
statistical-empirical analyses, probabilistic and parametrized
models, engineering approaches and simulative methods, e.g. for
fragment and blast propagation or hazard density computation. Risk
management is essential for improving all resilience management
steps: preparation, prevention, protection, response and recovery.
The methods investigate types of event and scenario, as well as
frequency, exposure, avoidance, hazard propagation, damage and
risks of events. Further methods are presented for context
assessment, risk visualization, communication, comparison and
assessment as well as selecting mitigation measures. The processes
and methods are demonstrated using detailed results and overviews
of security research projects, in particular in the applications
domains transport, aviation, airport security, explosive threats
and urban security and safety. Topics include: sufficient control
of emerging and novel hazards and risks, occupational safety,
identification of minimum (functional) safety requirements,
engineering methods for countering malevolent or terrorist events,
security research challenges, interdisciplinary approaches to risk
control and management, risk-based change and improvement
management, and support of rational decision-making. The book
addresses advanced bachelor students, master and doctoral students
as well as scientists, researchers and developers in academia,
industry, small and medium enterprises working in the emerging
field of security and safety engineering.
