Some PRA Info

Post by PLeonat »

I saw someone asking for PRA info in this forum, a while ago, and I just came up on these documents (don't recall who was asking). I thought they may find them useful.

All good stuff, Pleonat. I just wanted to jump in and say that all these documents are great, but one has to always remember that in order to be a good PRA analyst, they have to have a good, global system understanding, so that they can determine how components interact, etc.

There are lots of codes out there that can make the tasks associated with PRS easy, but any analyses will only be as good as the understanding of teh user and the information that goes into it.
