A safety-simulation is a modeling technique that reproduces system conditions — operational, fault, or emergency — in a controlled environment to examine how safety behaviors manifest, test responses, and predict failure modes. It operates by creating representative scenarios, observing system reactions, and extracting safety-relevant insights without exposing real assets to risk.

Definition
Why it is in scope
A human-built modeling technique that reproduces system conditions — operational, fault, or emergency — in a controlled environment to examine how safety behaviors manifest, test responses, and predict failure modes before real-world deployment.

Relations from this entry
- cms9ojxxi01pj7skqgxfisvjoSERVES →
Safety-simulation reproduces operational, fault, or emergency conditions to test responses. It is designed and maintained for the sake of safety-incident preparedness: building organizational readiness so real incidents are detected and handled effectively. Per Law 8d, servant (simulation) points at master (incident management).
- cms8n88bw01gh73fkl86xl2mnSERVES →
Safety simulation serves safety assessment: simulations model scenarios to evaluate system behavior under stress, providing assessment data through what-if analysis. The designed purpose of simulation is to enable assessment of safety-critical situations without real-world risk.
