Challenge

Lack of transparency causes risks in your development and production

The analysis of complex systems and processes requires a structured examination of possible causes of failure and their combinations. Without an integrated fault tree analysis, it is often difficult to gain a clear overview of interdependencies and probabilities.

  • Complex system dependencies: Modeling systems with strong interdependencies can lead to inaccurate analyses.
  • Inadequate data integration: Missing links between different modules make a holistic analysis difficult.
  • Lack of standard compliance: Compliance with industry standards such as ISO 26262 is often not guaranteed.
  • Limited analysis functions: The lack of options for sensitivity and reliability analyses limits the informative value.
  • Inadequate reporting tools: Complex results often cannot be presented in a comprehensible manner.

Without centralized fault tree analysis software, you risk overlooking critical system failures, failing to fully understand complex relationships, and taking unnecessary risks. Analyses become confusing, data scattered, and decisions uncertain - with potential consequences for safety, efficiency, and costs.

Solution

Make Reliable Decisions Through Structured Analysis

Our FTA solution combines powerful features, intuitive operation, and standard compliance so you can perform your analyses reliably and efficiently.

  • Integrated analysis tools: Fault tree, event tree, and Markov analyses combined in one platform.
  • Compliance with industry standards: Support for safety analyses that comply with ISO 26262, IEC 61508, and ARP 4761.
  • Extensive analysis functions: CCF, sensitivity, and uncertainty analyses for precise results.
  • Advanced reporting options: Create detailed reports with text, diagrams, graphics, including plots as a separate report type.
  • User-friendly interface: Intuitive operation for efficient work.

With our FTA software, you can identify system failures before they happen. Assess risks accurately, make decisions based on reliable data, and keep track of even complex systems at all times. Identify critical components early on and plan targeted actions - for maximum reliability and efficiency.

Benefits

Key features at a glance

Comprehensive fault tree analysis

Use a complete minimal cut analysis for precise failure detection.

Comprehensive failure models


Use all common failure models, such as constant failure probability, constant failure rate, and latent faults, to ensure robust and reliable basic analyses.

Advanced failure models


Expand your analytical capabilities with specialized models such as Poisson, binomial, or standby, and achieve more accurate results for complex systems.

Combining deductive and inductive analysis


Combine fault tree and event tree analyses to comprehensively identify system risks. Accurately assess the consequences of hazards and make informed decisions based on causes and possible consequences.

Markov model linkage

Easily link basic events to complex Markov models.

Link to Weibull analyses


Utilize real failure data by linking fault tree failure models with Weibull analysis data sets.

CCF analysis using multiple methods


Common-cause failures can be taken into account by using methods such as the beta factor, MGL, alpha factor, or beta-BFR.

Common cause failures (CCF)


Identify failures that can be traced back to a single root cause. This allows you to reliably capture simultaneous effects and reduce the risk of overlooking failures.

Sequential failures


Model time-dependent events where one failure triggers another. Use initiator-enabler analysis, priority AND gates, and sequential failure models to accurately analyze complex sequences.

Automated sensitivity analysis

Automatically vary failure and repair data within defined limits.

Time-dependent system analysis

Get intermediate values for time-dependent parameters in your system.

Early failure detection through automated verification


Automated verification checks help you avoid critical failures such as circular logic, the most frequent serious problem in fault tree analysis, before your analysis even begins.

Importance and risk analyses

Identify and prioritize critical components and assess risks reliably.

Uncertainty analysis & status monitoring

Monitor your results with uncertainty assessments and status indicators.
