193 PROBABILISTIC RISK ASSESSMENT
Probabilistic Risk Assessment (PRA) activities include development of probabilistic methods for applications to safety analysis of nuclear facilities including consequence analysis; basic plant component failure data analysis; systems reliability modeling with common cause failure; sensitivity theory methods and applications in PRA; use of PRA techniques in support of plants modifications and maintenance, including analysis of human factors in procedures; and applications of PRA methods and models to new facility designs with stress of spent fuel treatment and disposal facilities are carried out.
