Modern microgrids are networked systems comprising physical and cyber components for networking, computation, and monitoring. These cyber components make microgrids more reliable but increase the system complexity. Therefore, risk…

Reliability Assessment is an indispensable technology for identifying, interpreting, and lessening the potential failures in safety-critical systems like smart grids. Failure modes and effects analysis (FMEA) is one of the well documented…

The automotive industry faces increasing challenges in ensuring both functional safety (FuSa) and cybersecurity for complex semiconductor devices. Traditional Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) primarily addresses safety-related…

Failure modes and effects analysis (FMEA) is one of the most practical design tools implemented in the product design to analyze the possible failures and to improve the design. The use of FMEA is diversified, and different approaches are…

Background: Use of a linear accelerator in ultra-high dose rate (UHDR) mode can provide a conduit for wider access to UHDR FLASH effects, sparing normal tissue, but care needs to be taken in the use of such systems to ensure errors are…

Digital instrumentation and control (I&C) upgrades are a vital research area for nuclear industry. Despite their performance benefits, deployment of digital I&C in nuclear power plants (NPPs) has been limited. Digital I&C systems exhibit…

Software failures can have catastrophic and costly consequences. Functional Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) is a standard technique used within Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) to identify software failures and assess their…

As technology advances towards more connected and digital environments, medical devices are becoming increasingly connected to hospital networks and to the Internet, which exposes them, and thus the patients using them, to new cybersecurity…

Failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA) is a systematic approach to identify and analyse potential failures and their effects in a system or process. The FMEA approach, however, requires domain experts to manually analyse the FMEA model to…

The medical device industry has significantly advanced by integrating sophisticated electronics like microchips and field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) to enhance the safety and usability of life-saving devices. These complex…

Radio-frequency (RF) front-end forms a critical part of any radio system, defining its cost as well as communication performance. However, these components frequently exhibit non-ideal behavior, referred to as impairments, due to the…

As systems become increasingly complex, conducting effective safety analysis in the earlier phases of a system's lifecycle is essential to identify and mitigate risks before they escalate. To that end, this paper investigates the…

Accurate temperature measurements are essential for the proper monitoring and control of industrial furnaces. However, measurement uncertainty is a risk for such a critical parameter. Certain instrumental and environmental errors must be…

ISO 14971 is the primary standard used for medical device risk management. While it specifies the requirements for medical device risk management, it does not specify a particular method for performing risk management. Hence, medical device…

Objectives: Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used for clinical text summarization, yet structured methods to assess associated patient safety risks remain limited. Failure Mode, Effects, and Criticality Analysis (FMECA)…

Machine learning (ML) models are used in many safety- and security-critical applications nowadays. It is therefore important to measure the security of a system that uses ML as a component. This paper focuses on the field of ML,…

Cardiac Implantable Electronic Devices (CIED) are fast becoming a fundamental tool of advanced medical technology and a key instrument in saving lives. Despite their importance, previous studies have shown that CIED are not completely…

Laser systems emitting radiation in the visible and near infrared region are potentially hazardous for the retina of the human eye. This can result in irreparable injuries due to photomechanical, photothermal or photochemical light-tissue…

Prostate cancer (PCa) is one of the leading causes of death for men worldwide. Multi-parametric magnetic resonance (mpMR) imaging has emerged as a non-invasive diagnostic tool for detecting and localising prostate tumours by specialised…

In industrial settings, surface defects on steel can significantly compromise its service life and elevate potential safety risks. Traditional defect detection methods predominantly rely on manual inspection, which suffers from low…
