N2 - Dynamic Event Trees (DETs) have been developed within the context of Dynamic Probabilistic Risk Assessment (DPRA) in order to overcome the limitation of the static event-tree/fault-tree approach, namely that the interaction among hardware/process/software/human behavior through time is not explicitly accounted for. To build a DET for a given initiating event, two computer codes are required: a plant analysis code (simulator) and a scenario generator (driver). Different driver codes have been developed for this purpose and coupled to simulators (e.g., ADAPT-MAAP4, ADAPT-MELCOR, ADS-RELAP, MCDET-MELCOR). The coupling of RAVEN and MAAP5 for performing a DET analysis of nuclear power plants is presented and illustrated for DET construction following a station blackout event in a pressurized water reactor.
