The introduction to the Fault Tree Analysis has been presented in this article. Selected publications on the Fault Tree Analysis have been listed. The usefulness of the method in marine engineering application has been indicated. Reliability testing facility has been presented, that is typical two-stroke, slow-speed ship crosshead Diesel engine intended to power the ship. The way of creating system...

The purpose of this paper is to present the results of a query aimed at assessing the validity of the topic of crankcase explosions prevention in the main marine engines. The study takes into account the engine type, engine manufacturer, ship’s age, accident severity, ship’s location at the time of the incident, and the share of fatal accidents in the analyzed population of crankcase explosions. One...
This article aims to compile, describe and compare three different models taken from the literature describing the causes of explosions in the crankcases of marine engines. Each of the models has a different level of detail and was prepared with a different purpose. However, the same process, explosions in crankcases, was analyzed in all cases. A statistical evaluation of the frequency of events leading...
