Supporting the Application of Dynamic Risk Analysis to Real-World Situations using Systems Engineering: A focus on the Norwegian Power Grid Management

Dynamic Risk Analysis (DRA) approaches are virtuous processes enabling the improvement of state-of-the-art techniques for risk calculation in industrial infrastructures. However, they require the existence of an appropriate architecture enabling end-to-end processing of information, which has not yet been defined in practice. This paper aims at discussing the possibilities and the advantages of combining DRA with Systems Engineering (SE) approaches to reach this objective. For that, we define a framework based on SE principles, apply it for the assessment of the role of vegetation on the global risk for power grids and discuss the benefits it provides.
