Abstract

Discrete dynamic event tree (DDET) methodologies have become more widely used in the last decade in the field of nuclear power plant safety, in part because of advances in technology that have made full-scale analyses computationally feasible. Unfortunately, these methods remain widely academic and are not applied to ongoing risk-informed applications. This report reviews potential approaches for an effort to efficiently link both physical plant and human action modeling in a DDET framework for a light water reactor facing a beyond design basis accident.
