Fault tree - Boolean context, analysis and mathematical foundations

Unlike reliability diagrams (BDF), whose creation date is unknown, fault trees (ADD) have been clearly identified , . The ADD method was developed in 1962 by H.A. Watson as part of the US Air Force's Minuteman project. It immediately proved so effective that it was rapidly adopted in aeronautics, then in the space industry and nuclear industry , and is now used in most industrial sectors, where it is part of the panoply of methods commonly implemented in the field of operational safety (reliability diagrams [SE 4074] , standard CEI 61078 event trees [SE 4050] standard CEI 62502 Markov graphs, norm CEI 61165 ,
