Résumé	Multi-response fault tree analysis (MR-FTA) extends classical fault tree analysis to systems where multiple distinct top-level failure events or outcome metrics must be evaluated simultaneously. Rather than constructing a single tree for one top event, the analyst builds and quantifies parallel trees — one per response — then aggregates results to rank critical failure paths across all responses at once, enabling holistic system risk prioritization.	Fault Tree Analysis (FTA) is a top-down, deductive reliability method that begins with an undesired top-level failure event and systematically traces backward through chains of contributing causes using Boolean logic gates (AND, OR). First formalized by Watson at Bell Telephone Laboratories in 1961 and later standardized by Vesely, Goldberg, Roberts, and Haasl in the landmark 1981 NRC Fault Tree Handbook, FTA has become a cornerstone of quantitative risk assessment in nuclear, aerospace, and industrial safety engineering.
