Evaluation of Operational Reliability in Industrial Sensors Control Systems via Stochastic Petri Nets (SPN)
Journal Title: RECENT - Year 2010, Vol 11, Issue 30
Abstract
The present paper describes the application of Stochastic Petri Nets (SPN) for analysis, modelling and evaluation of the operational reliability in industrial control systems. The SPN are applied for reliability modelling and reliability assessment in an industrial extruded polystyrene (XPS) grinding device. Some specific Petri net-based models of normal and abnormal control systems behaviour are developed and respectively applied under real operational control of an XPS-grinding device.
