T1 - Common cause analysis of circular variable nacelle inlet concepts for aero engines in civil aviation T2 - Proceedings IRF2018: 6th International Conference Integrity-Reliability-Failure, Lisbon/Portugal, 22-26 July 2018 N2 - This paper presents the application of a safe design process within a concept study for variable aero engine inlets. The safety assessment method Common Cause Analysis (CCA), consisting of a Zonal Safety Analysis (ZSA), a Particular Risk Analysis (PRA) and a Common Mode Analysis (CMA), is performed on variable inlet concepts. By the means of the CCA individual failure modes and external events, which can lead to failure conditions, are identified. Potential design adaptations to mitigate these failure conditions are presented.
