“…This renovated attention originated from consequences those incidents carried to people, environment and properties; their final cost figure happened to be orders of magnitude superior to the cost of projects themselves [1], [2], [3]. Those occurrences changed substantially the definition of expected fault and/or failure ship borne system must tolerate, bringing in new scenarios not considered before; Safe Return to Port regulation (SRtP, [4]) is just one glaring example.…”

Dependability has only recently become a unified theory, developing its own taxonomy, lexicon and methods. This newly formed discipline now regroups concepts defined and developed within international rules corpus in different areas of engineering, such as: aerospace, automotive, computing, etc. Applications to marine sector are, at present, partial, lacking in terms of systematic approach and limited in extension. Dependability techniques provide system analysis methods that classify faults, detail consequences with associated risk index. These indications are quintessential in assessing design progress and effectiveness, in discussing issues and consequent modifications required, in quantifying impact of faults in terms of operations, in directing product and documentation development, rendering easier and less conflictual demonstrating specification adherence. Aim of this work is demonstrating dependable design can be obtained with a bearable effort, implanting dependability techniques on an already present ship design substrate, and that dependability techniques may be profitably employed as project management tools

“…As such, its performance must be measured with respect to its ability to provide continuity of service to these loads across the variety of scenarios in which it must operate [2], [4]. The desired IEP design should be dependable [5].…”

“…Dependability metrics have been derived from the operability metric as measures of the IEP performance over the range of scenarios in which the IEP must operate [2]. The assessment and optimization of dependability require a great number of operability evaluations [2], [4]. Furthermore, it has been found that the electrical dynamics of the IEP have little effect on the dependability of the IEP so long as the electrical system has been well designed (e.g., stable) [4], [6]- [8].…”

In early-stage design exploration, it has been found that electrical dynamics do not significantly affect the dependability of an integrated engineering plant. Therefore, it has been found useful to neglect these electrical dynamics and focus on mechanical, thermal, and fluidic dynamics in assessing system performance. Previous methods of accomplishing this goal involve the use of linear programming to describe the behavior of the electrical system. Herein, two significant shortcomings of the existing linear programming methods are identified, and a method of representing the electrical system that addresses these shortcomings is proposed. The proposed method is demonstrated in several system studies.
