Introduction to ARP-4761
Fundamentals of safety for civil
aircraft, systems, and equipment
Basics of Reliability Theory
Functional Hazard Assessment
Preliminary System Safety
Assessment
System Safety Assessment
Fault Tree Analysis
Markov Analysis
Failure Mode and Effects
Analysis
Common Cause Analysis

ARP-4761 provides both newcomers and experienced safety engineers


an insight into the key objectives of the Aerospace Recommended
Practice (ARP) for the framework and techniques applicable to civil
aircraft and systems, recommended by the Aerospace Practice 4761.
This course introduces you to the Safety Assessment Process on
aircraft systems, as well as how it integrates with other implementation
processes. The fundamentals of the Reliability Theory are described
and discussed in relation to airborne systems, equipment requirements
and how they are used during both the preliminary and final system
safety assessment process.
The course also looks at each of the methods for conducting the Safety
Assessment Process, including worked examples for each of the core
techniques. We discuss the regulatory framework in which ARP-4761
fits, and describe how it relates to other guidance for civil airborne
systems and equipment, especially the relationship with the recently
updated ARP-4754A.
A large proportion of the course is spent describing and working
through each of the core techniques of Functional Hazard Assessment
(FHA), Fault Tree Analysis (FTA), and Common Cause Analysis (CCA),
including each of the sub-analyses of Zonal Safety Analysis, Common
Mode Analysis and Particular Risk Analysis.
Real life examples are used extensively during the course providing an
invaluable training and learning aid. In addition to the core techniques
the training provides introductions to dependency diagrams and Markov
analysis.
