MBFHA: A Framework for Model‐Based Functional Hazard Assessment for Aircraft Systems
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract To address growing system complexity in the aerospace industry, a Model‐Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) approach has been increasingly adopted for the development of aircraft systems. This calls for a corresponding approach for performing safety assessment to maintain consistency between the system and safety domains. One of the key safety assessment processes for aircraft development is the Functional Hazard Assessment (FHA). The purpose of this paper is to build upon previously published works and introduce the MBFHA framework which describes the language, method, and tool needed for implementing a model‐based approach to performing FHA and integrating it into MBSE activities. A customised FHA profile is introduced for the modelling language, an overall workflow along with processes for FHA report and safety requirements generation is presented for the method, and a list of tool constraints is provided. A proof‐of‐concept is subsequently presented using safety data for the landing gear extension and retraction system of a generic business aircraft.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
