Common cause failures and cascading failures in technical systems: Similarities, differences and barriers
Xie, Lin; Lundteigen, Mary Ann; Liu, Yiliu (Chapter, 2018)Many technical systems continue to increase in size and complexity, with more interactions and interdependencies between components. Dependent failures, such as common cause failures and cascading failures, are becoming ... -
Effect of anion exchange ionomer content on electrode performance in AEM water electrolysis
Faid, Alaa; Xie, Lin; Barnett, Alejandro Oyarce; Seland, Frode; Kirk, Donald; Sunde, Svein (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Anion exchange membrane water electrolysis (AEMWE) has acquired substantial consideration as a cost-effective hydrogen production technology. The anion ionomer content in the catalyst layers during hydrogen and oxygen ... -
Epitaxial Antiperovskite/Perovskite Heterostructures for Materials Design
Quintila, Camilo; Song, Kyong; Shao, Ding-Fu; Xie, Lin; Nan, Tianxiang; Paudel, Tula; Campell, Neil; Pan, Xiaoqing; Tybell, Per Thomas Martin; Rzchowski, Mark S.; Tsymbal, Evgeny Yu.; Choi, Si-Young; Eom, Chang-Beom (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Engineered heterostructures formed by complex oxide materials are a rich source of emergent phenomena and technological applications. In the quest for new functionality, a vastly unexplored avenue is interfacing oxide ... -
Failure rates of safety critical equipment based on inventory attributes
Håbrekke, Solfrid; Hauge, Stein; Xie, Lin; Lundteigen, Mary Ann (Chapter, 2018)Reliable failure rate estimates of safety critical equipment is crucial for verifying performance requirements and for trending the safety performance of the equipment. Joint industry efforts, like OREDA, Exida and PDS ... -
Modified Failure Rates for Safety Instrumented Systems based on Operational Experience from the Oil and Gas Industry
Xie, Lin (Master thesis, 2017)In the oil and gas industry, safety instrument systems (SISs) are designed to ensure production safety, reduce risk and prevent major accidents. SISs should be demonstrated the fulfillment of specified safety requirement ... -
Operational data-driven prediction for failure rates of equipment in safety instrumented systems: A case study from the oil and gas industry
Xie, Lin; Håbrekke, Solfrid; Liu, Yiliu; Lundteigen, Mary Ann (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Safety instrumented systems are frequently deployed to reduce the risk associated with industrial activities, such as those in the oil and gas industry. A key requirement for safety-instrumented systems in standards like ... -
Performance analysis of safety barriers against cascading failures in a battery pack
Xie, Lin; Ustolin, Federico; Lundteigen, Mary Ann; Li, Tian; Liu, Yiliu (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Lithium-ion batteries have been widely employed as the principal power source in electric vehicles and other storage systems. However, some critical issues in a battery pack still exist, such as thermal failures on initial ... -
Performance analysis of safety instrumented systems against cascading failure during prolonged demand
Xie, Lin; Lundteigen, Mary Ann; Liu, Yiliu (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Cascading failures may occur in many technical systems where the failure of one component triggers successive events. Safety barriers like safety instrumented systems are installed in many industries to prevent failures ... -
Performance assessment of K-out-of-N safety instrumented systems subject to cascading failures
Xie, Lin; Lundteigen, Mary Ann; Liu, Yiliu (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Safety instrumented systems often employ redundancy to enhance the ability to detect and respond to hazardous events. The use of redundancy increases the fault tolerance to single failure but remains vulnerable in case of ... -
Performance Assessment of Safety-instrumented Systems Subject to Cascading Failures in High-demand Mode
Xie, Lin; Lundteigen, Mary Ann; Liu, Yiliu; Kassa, Elias; Zhu, Shengyang (Chapter, 2019)Safety-instrumented systems are designed to act upon hazardous events and reinforce safety. IEC 61508 specifies two possible reliability measures of safety-instrumented systems: the average probability of failure on demand ... -
Reliability and barrier assessment of series–parallel systems subject to cascading failures
Xie, Lin; Lundteigen, Mary Ann; Liu, Yiliu (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Cascading failures can occur in many technical systems where the components are organized as in series–parallel structures. The failures in these systems may propagate from one component to the other, not only within the ... -
Safety barriers against common cause failure and cascading failure: literature reviews and modeling strategies
Xie, Lin; Lundteigen, Mary Ann; Liu, Yiliu (Chapter, 2018)Safety barriers are required in many technical systems to reduce initiating negations, suppress failure propagations, or mitigate the consequences of common cause failures and cascading failures. Based on a thorough ... -
Safety Barriers in Complex Systems with Dependent Failures: Modeling and Assessment Approaches
Xie, Lin (Doctoral theses at NTNU;2022:40, Doctoral thesis, 2022)Technical systems are becoming more and more complex with a degree of dependencies. Such dependency issues can significantly reduce system reliability and cause catastrophes without proper prevention. Therefore, a variety ...
