fmdtools (Fault Model Design tools) is a toolkit for modelling system resilience in the early design phase. With it, one can simulate the effects of faults in a system to build resilience into the system design at a high level. To achieve this, fmdtools provides a Python-based design environment where one can represent the system in a model, simulate the resilience of the model to faults, and analyze the resulting model responses to iteratively improve the resilience of the design.

Getting Started

The latest public version of fmdtools can be downloaded from the fmdtools github repository e.g., using:

   git clone https://github.com/nasa/fmdtools.git

For development and use of this version (e.g., for tutorials and models), we recommended installing this package using pip:

   pip install -e "/path/to/fmdtools"

A version of the fmdtools toolkit can also be installed directly from the PyPI package repository using pip install fmdtools.

Prerequisites

fmdtools requires Python 3 (anaconda recommended) and depends directly on these packages (see requirements.txt):

These external (non-python) packages are recommended to enable specific fmdtools use-cases and to test/develop fmdtools as well as work with examples in the repository:

jupyter notebook
# used for: repository notebooks
# license: (BSD-3) https://jupyter.org/governance/projectlicense.html
graphviz
# used for: plotting graphs using graphviz
# license: (CPL 1.0) https://graphviz.org/license/
pyvis
# used for: interactive html views of model graphs
# license: (BSD-3) https://github.com/WestHealth/pyvis/blob/master/LICENSE_BSD.txt
ffmpeg
# used for: animations in demo notebook(s)
# license: (LGPL version) https://www.ffmpeg.org/legal.html

These must be installed within the system environment (e.g. using conda install packagename) to enable their specific features/uses in the repository.

Additionally, the following python packages are not included but are necessary for development/testing of the code:

deap
# used for optimization of rover faults
# license: (LGPL-3.0) https://github.com/DEAP/deap/blob/master/LICENSE.txt
pymoo
# used for optimization of tank example
# license: (Apache 2.0) https://github.com/anyoptimization/pymoo/blob/main/LICENSE
nbmake
# used for notebook tests

pytest-html
# used for development test report generation
# license: (MPL-3) https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-html/blob/master/LICENSE
coverage
# used for measuring test coverage
# license: (Apache 2.0) https://github.com/nedbat/coveragepy/blob/master/NOTICE.txt
pytest-cov
# used for measuring test coverage
# license: (MIT) https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-cov/blob/master/LICENSE
genbadge
# used for generating test badges for the README
# license: (BSD 3-Clause) https://github.com/smarie/python-genbadge/blob/main/LICENSE

pathos
# used for parallelism tutorial profiling
# license: (BSD-3 Clause) https://github.com/uqfoundation/pathos/blob/master/LICENSE

They can be installed using pip install packagename.

Examples

For tutorials, see the examples folder and examples page of the documentation. These folders include the following:

  • asg_demo: A tutorial covering the use of the Action Sequence Graph in the Function class, which is useful for representing a Function’s Progress through a sequence of actions (e.g., modes of operation, etc).

  • eps: A model of a simple electric power system in eps.py, which shows how undirected propagation can be used in a simple static (i.e., one time-step) moelling use-case.

  • multiflow_demo: A demonstration on the use of MultiFlow and CommsFlow for the coordination of multiple devices.

  • multirotor: Includes several models of drones modelled at differing levels of detail. Includes a demonstration of how models can be matured as more details are added and how the system can be co-optimized.

  • pump: A simple pump model to demonstrate various capabilities of fmdtools. This includes a tutorial notebook, demostration of plot capabilities, optimization and stochastic modeling.

  • rover: Showcases more advanced methodologies that can be used in fmdtools, and has essentially been the developers’ demo case study for advancing the state-of-the-art in resilience simulation.

  • tank: A fairly simple model of a tank, inlet valve, and outlet valve. It includes a demonstration of the model and optimization of said model.
