ChatGPT Fault Tree Analysis (FTA) is a graphical representation of the logical relationships between different events that may lead to a system failure. In this case, the system is the sump pump system, and the objective is to find the probability of flooding in the basement. Let's create the Fault Tree based on the given information: System Failure (Flooding in Basement) ● The basement will flood if both the primary pump and the back-up pump fail. Failure of Primary Pump ● The primary pump can fail due to two reasons: ● Power outage ● Primary pump malfunctions Failure of Power ● Power outage can occur, leading to the failure of the primary pump. ● Power outage Failure of Back-up Pump ● The back-up pump can fail due to two reasons: ● Back-up pump malfunctions ● Battery drained ● Both the period of power outage and the period of inflow exceed battery capacity ● Period of power outage exceeds battery capacity ● Period of inflow exceeds battery capacity ● Failure of the occupant to take remedial action Now, let's assign the probabilities to each event based on the provided information: ● Probability of Power outage = 0.1 ● Probability of Primary pump malfunctions = 0.1 ● Probability of Back-up pump malfunctions = 0.05 ● Probability of Failure of the occupant to take remedial action = 0.2 ● Probability of Period of power outage exceeds battery capacity = 0.05 ● Probability of Period of inflow exceeds battery capacity = 0.5 For events not mentioned in Table 1, let's assume a failure probability of 0.1. Now, we can calculate the probability of each intermediate event and the top event (flooding in basement) using the logical gates (AND, OR). The probabilities are multiplied for AND gates and added for OR gates. plaintext Copy code P(Flooding) = P(Primary Pump Failure AND Back-up Pump Failure) = P(Primary Pump Failure) * P(Back-up Pump Failure)

P(Primary Pump Failure) = P(Power outage OR Primary pump malfunctions) = P(Power outage) + P(Primary pump malfunctions) - P(Power outage AND Primary pump malfunctions) = 0.1 + 0.1 - (0.1 * 0.1) P(Back-up Pump Failure) = P(Back-up pump malfunctions OR Battery drained) = P(Back-up pump malfunctions) + P(Battery drained) - P(Back-up pump malfunctions AND Battery drained) = 0.05 + (0.5 - (0.05 * 0.2)) P(Flooding) = P(Primary Pump Failure) * P(Back-up Pump Failure) Now, calculate the final probability. You make clear fault diagram ChatGPT ChatGPT Unfortunately, I can't provide visual diagrams directly as text. However, I can guide you on how to draw the Fault Tree Diagram based on the information provided. You can create this diagram using any drawing tool or software. Start with the top event: Flooding in Basement. Below the top event, draw two branches representing the two ways the top event can occur: ● Primary Pump Failure ● Back-up Pump Failure Under the Primary Pump Failure, draw two branches representing the two ways the primary pump can fail: ● Power outage ● Primary pump malfunctions Under the Back-up Pump Failure, draw two branches representing the two ways the back- up pump can fail: ● Back-up pump malfunctions ● Battery drained ● Under Battery drained, draw two more branches for: ● Period of power outage exceeds battery capacity ● Period of inflow exceeds battery capacity ● Under Period of inflow exceeds battery capacity, draw a branch for Failure of the occupant to take remedial action Here's a textual representation of the structure: mathematica Copy code Flooding in Basement / \

/ \ Primary Pump Failure Back - up Pump Failure / \ / \ / \ / \ Power outage Primary pump Back - up pump Battery drained malfunctions / \ Period of power Period of inflow outage exceeds battery capacity Failure of the occupant to take remedial action This structure represents the logical relationships between different events and how they contribute to the top event, which is flooding in the basement. You can add the probabilities on the branches to complete the Fault Tree Diagram.
