Reliability Data for Research Reactor Probabilistic Safety Assessment

Provides information on reliability data for research reactors. In addition to component reliability data, the publication provides useful information related to the preparation and application of data relevant to initiating events, human reliability, and common cause failures.

Reporting on the results from an IAEA coordinated research project, this publication provides information on reliability data for research reactors. In addition to component reliability data, the publication provides useful information related to the preparation and application of data relevant to initiating events, human reliability, and common cause failures. It also provides guidance on the use and application of the reliability data for research reactors probabilistic safety assessments as a complementary tool to deterministic methods. This publication should be used in conjunction with the relevant IAEA Safety Standards.
