Faults, faulting

Covert Fault Faults that can be classified as hidden, concealed, unannounced, undetected, unrevealed, latent, etc. In the case of safety instrumented systems covert faults impair the intended safeguarding function without being apparent to the operator. Covert faults can only be detected by testing or challenging the system. [Pg.160]

Overt Fault Fault that can be classified as announced, detected, revealed, etc. [Pg.164]

Regarding the development of a structural model of the refinery subsurface, it was observed that the discontinuities present in the area can be grouped into three distinct systems. With the exception of stratification (primary discontinuity), all three of these systems are represented by joints (fractures where the two opposing faces do not shift with respect to one another), shear joints (where the two faces do shift with respect to one another) and faults (fault planes or zones, marked by cataclasis, rubble and mylonite with clear evidence of shifting of the two faces). [Pg.6]

To face these faults, fault diagnosis modules are developed. They are based on the observations and interpretations of symptoms, i.e. the changes of an observable quantity from normal behavior. Fault Diagnosis task can be split in three main steps. [Pg.202]

Several kinds of failures may compromise safety and productivity of industrial processes. Indeed, faults may affect the efficiency of the process (e.g., lower product quality) or, in the worst scenarios, could lead to fatal accidents (e.g., temperature runaway) with injuries to personnel, environmental pollution, and equipments damage. In the chemical process fault diagnosis area, the term fault is generally defined as a departure from an acceptable range of an observed variable or a parameter. Fault diagnosis (FD) consists of three main tasks fault detection, i.e., the detection of the occurrence of a fault, fault isolation, i.e., the determination of the type and/or the location of the fault, and fault identification, i.e., the determination of the fault profile. After a fault has been detected, controller reconfiguration for the self-correction of the fault effects (fault accommodation) can be achieved in some cases. [Pg.6]

Strike-slip fault fault whose relative displacement is purely horizontal. [Pg.531]

Countable fault = fault which occurs in parts of electrical apparatus conforming to the constructional requirement of this standard Non-countable fault = fault which occurs in parts of electrical apparatus not conforming to the constructional requirements of this standard (These definitions are quoted from EN 50020 and IEC 60079-11)... [Pg.384]

In light of the poor seismic data quality on the C and J structures the SGR calculations in these areas should be treated as guidelines rather than an exact definition of the individual faults. Fault 9 was selected in order to focus upon internal segmentation in the J structures (Fig. 3). [Pg.121]

In general, in the Greater Heidrun there are significant pressure differences on a regional scale between areas bounded by the major sealing faults. Fault seal probability can thus be used to assist in the definition of possible pressure compartments. The same faults also bound the main hydrocarbon-bearing traps and prospects, particularly those that rely on fault seal for success. [Pg.136]

To model pressure diffusion at A u, the three-dimensional groundwater flow code, PARADIGM (Lunn and Mackay 1997) is used. PARADIGM models flow within a 3D rock matrix with embedded 2D planar faults. Faults have a separate 2D planar mesh and can be at any location and orientation interaction with the 3D matrix mesh is provided by a fully implicit flow solution that allows leakage between fault nodes and the nearest matrix nodes. Further details of PARADIGM and its application at A(u are presented in Nascimenio et al. (2003b). [Pg.619]

The experiment eontinuously compared the PC of a golden miniMIPS with the PC of the faulty one. Fault injection results are presented in Table 5.3. It shows the number of iqected faults (Faults Injected) for each application, the number of faults that caused an error to the microprocessor (Incorrect Result) and the detection rate achieved by the proposed solution (Errors Detected). The system was simulated with a clock period of 42 ns and a total of 2459 signals describing it. Forty thousand faults represent 16 times the number of signals, but only 0.4 % of the extensive pos-sibihties of faults for the encryption algorithm... [Pg.81]

Each of these factors provides information regarding the process risk of continued operation, which is the primary concern when the intent is to continue normal operation in the presence of a known SIF fault. Fault tolerance is a design characteristic of the SIF and is discussed in ISA-TR84.00.04-1, Annex K. [Pg.224]

Defects, although common in integrated circuit processes, are difficult to quantify via test methods. Therefore, the industry has developed abstractions of defects called faults. Faults attempt to model the way defects manifest themselves in the test environment. [Pg.845]

Fault Fault in a system is defined as some deviation from the expected behavior of the system—a malfunction. [Pg.808]
