ERA Team Philosophy!

• Risk-informed decision support − Requirement verification − Risk-informed design support − Part selection/procurement
• Probabilistic risk assessment is informative, not predictive − Provides quantitative answers to
specific questions − Always driven by specific application − Based on traditional methods and
extended as appropriate

Iterative/responsive modeling approach
Risk model maturity tracks design maturity and engages engineers early in the design process, rather than a post facto analysis!
ERA Team Methodology!
• Dynamic nature of failures − Time dependence − State dependence − Partial & interactive failures
• Physics-based analysis − External hazards − Failure evolution
• Traditional static models − Lower part levels − Typically reliability based
Combines traditional PRA methods with dynamic methods for increased accuracy of representation of system risk!

Summary & Conclusions!
• CEPR model is used to predict the time for an initial ECLSS failure to propagate into a hazardous environment and trigger a LOC event − Can be utilized as a stand-alone model to aid in decision-making − Allows for integration of model results into dynamic mission risk models − Enables the risk analyst to remove the assumption that loss of functionality triggers LOC
• The assumption that loss of functionality triggers LOC has been shown to be excessively conservative − Impacts overall risk driver ranking − Impacts risk reduction trade study results − Could lead to a suboptimal design that inherently increases the risk of LOC
• Incorporating CEPR results yields more accurate design insights
