摘要

The increasing adoption of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) in various operations introduces new safety risks to people on ground and airspace users. As a result, EU regulations require the demonstration of safety for UAV-based operations, necessitating comprehensive hazard analyses that capture diverse event and failure contributions. This paper presents a generic, model-based approach for assessing UAV system safety, leveraging layered failure propagation models from [4]. Our twofold contribution includes: (1) a detailed exposition of each failure propagation layer’s implementation in Altarica and their interconnections, and (2) the analysis of this layered model using associated Altarica tools to generate certification artefacts. A thorough case study on a rotary-wing UAV use-case illustrates our modelling methodology and its analysis capabilities.
