4 Lab. Seminar3 Terminologies Reliability Is the probability that a piece of equipment or component will perform its intended function satisfactorily for a prescribed time and under stipulated environmental conditions. Failure Is the nonperformance or inability of the system or component to perform its intended function for a specified time under specified environmental conditions. Error Is a design flaw or deviation from a desired or intended state. Accident Is an undesired and unplanned (but not necessarily unexpected) event that results in (at least) a specified level of loss. Incident Is an event that involves no loss (or only minor loss) but with the potential for loss under different circumstances.

5 Lab. Seminar4 Terminologies Hazard Is a state or set of conditions of a system (or an object) that, together with other conditions in the environment of the system (or object), will lead inevitably to an accident (loss event). Risk Is the hazard level combined with (1) the likelihood of the hazard leading to an accident (sometimes called danger) and (2) hazard exposure or duration (sometimes called latency). Safety Is freedom from accidents or losses. Is a property of a system that it will not endanger human life or the environment.

6 Lab. Seminar5 Safety Concepts Safety-Critical Systems Systems that are intended to achieve, on its own, the necessary level of safety integrity for the implementation of the required safety functions. Systems whose failure can threaten human life or cause serious environmental damage. Unintentional Injuries Cost of $399 billion a year only in the USA Fifth leading cause of death Due to interaction between machines and their environment and the way people live and work Engineers should more think about the safety of the users...

7 Lab. Seminar6 Safety Concepts IEC 61508 defines the V-model for software safety integrity and the development life-cycle. The design and development process starts with the software safety requirements specification, which is part of the overall safety requirements specification for software and hardware of a system, ends with validated software on the software validation testing.

9 Lab. Seminar8 Safety Concepts Safety Processes Hazard and risk analysis  Assess the hazards and the risks of damage associated with the system Safety requirements specification  Specify a set of safety requirements which apply to the system Designation of safety-critical systems  Identify the sub-systems whose incorrect operation may compromise system safety Safety validation  Check the overall system safety

10 Lab. Seminar9 Safety Concepts Safety Integrity Levels (SILs) SIL represents a concepts of classes of safety requirements for functions, systems, sub-systems or components. Four distinct levels of safety integrity were introduced and assigned in IEC 61508. Different degrees of safety integrity depend on what kind of risk a safety- related system is tackling, how willing we are to accept that risk, how many measures we have, as well as how effective they are. Safety Integrity Level Low demand mode of operation (probability of failure to perform its safety functions on demand) Continuous/high-demand mode of operation (probability of dangerous failure per hour) 43214321 >= 10 -5 to < 10 -4 >= 10 -4 to < 10 -3 >= 10 -3 to < 10 -2 >= 10 -2 to < 10 -1 >= 10 -9 to < 10 -8 >= 10 -8 to < 10 -7 >= 10 -7 to < 10 -6 >= 10 -6 to < 10 -5

11 Lab. Seminar10 Hazard Analysis What is it ? Identifying all possible hazards potentially created by a product, process or application. Structured into various classes of hazard analysis and carried out throughout software process. A risk analysis should be carried out and documented for each identified hazard. Objectives : Tool for engineers and safety practitioners to identify possible hazards, provide an evaluation of the risks, prompt alternative design solutions to mitigate or control the risks to an acceptable level.

12 Lab. Seminar11 Hazard Analysis Hazard Analysis Stages Hazard identification: Identify potential hazards which may arise Hazard classification: Assess the risk associated with each hazard Hazard decomposition: Decompose hazards to discover their potential root causes Safety specification: Define how each hazard must be taken into account when the system is designed For large systems, hazard analysis must be structured Preliminary hazard analysis: Assess the principal hazards for the system in its operating environment Sub-system hazard analysis: Assess hazards for each safety-critical sub-system System hazard analysis: Assess hazards which result from sub-system interaction Software hazard analysis: Assess hazards related to incorrect software function Operational hazard analysis: Assess hazards resulting from incorrect system use

13 Lab. Seminar12 Hazard Analysis Safe Design Precedence 1. Hazard Elimination Hazard elimination is the least expensive, and most effective, method of handling system hazard. If addressed early in the system design process, hazards can often be eliminated at almost no cost whatsoever. 2. Hazard Reduction Hazards may be reduced by passive safeguards, which maintain safety merely by their presence, or by active safeguards, which require the hazard or condition to be detected and corrected. 3. Hazard Control 4. Damage Reduction

14 Lab. Seminar13 Hazard Analysis Risk Assessment It is the next step after the collection of potential hazards. Risk in this context is the probability and severity of the hazard becoming reality.

15 Lab. Seminar14 Hazard Analysis General Risk Assessment Procedure These parameters can be limits of the machine or design, limits on uses, limits on the scope of the analysis, or other limits.
