A human reliability analysis methodology based on an extended Phoenix method for severe accidents in nuclear power plants: Qualitative analysis framework

Shuai Chen et al.

Summary: The Fukushima accident highlighted human errors, leading to the development of a qualitative analysis framework for emergency response personnel reliability under severe accident conditions. This framework includes ERP response tree, human failure fault tree, Bayesian belief networks, and aims to prevent human errors in severe accident conditions.

Multi-unit nuclear power plant probabilistic risk assessment: A comprehensive survey

Taotao Zhou et al.

Summary: The growing concern over probabilistic risk assessments (PRA) has led to active developments in multi-unit probabilistic risk assessment (MUPRA) post the Fukushima Daiichi accident in 2011. However, technical issues and challenges have arisen due to possible inter-unit dependencies in MUPRA. Further research and exploration are needed in areas such as accident sequences, risk metrics, and site-based models to address these challenges and gaps for future developments.
