Approaches to justifying the safety of nuclear reactors based on the ideas of game theory
The article analyzes the possibility of using game theory in justifying the safety of nuclear reactors. Three well-known approaches to safety analysis are considered: probabilistic, deterministic, and phenomenological. The author comes to the conclusion about the need for the integrated use of these approaches. The formalism of the game with a thinking opponent should be considered the most preferable. This is consistent with conservative and deterministic approaches.
