Sammanfattning	Hybrid Fault Tree Analysis (Hybrid FTA) extends classical Fault Tree Analysis by integrating complementary modelling paradigms — most commonly fuzzy set theory, Bayesian networks, or event-tree logic — to overcome the strict data requirements and static assumptions of traditional FTA. The hybrid approach allows analysts to handle uncertainty in failure probability estimates, capture dynamic dependencies between components, and update risk assessments as new evidence becomes available, making it especially valuable in complex engineering systems where complete statistical failure data are rarely available.	A Reliability Block Diagram (RBD) is a visual representation of a system's architecture that models how component reliabilities combine to determine overall system reliability. Each block represents a component or subsystem with a known reliability (probability of functioning without failure), and connections between blocks represent functional relationships (series, parallel, or mixed). RBD analysis is a fundamental tool in reliability engineering, used to identify critical components, optimize redundancy, and predict system-level failure rates.
