Pranab Samanta, J.N. O'Brien, H.W. Morrison · OSTI OAI (U.S. Department of Energy Office of Scientific and Technical Information) · 1985
This report provides an evaluation of the practicality, acceptability, and usefulness of using the Multiple Sequential Failure (MSF) model originally described in NUREG/CR-2211, 1981. The MSF model is described, discussed, and procedures for its use provided. The model was found to be practical, acceptable, and useful as a PRA tool for assessing the degree of dependence due to human interactions with components in systems employing redundant components.
