Abstract
[ABSTRACT IN ENGLISH] Fault trees for real systems can get very complicated, and algorithms for tree generation are required to be applied to complex systems. This paper presents an algorithm for the synthesis of fault trees in control systems which employ the combination of feedback control loops, and the one of feedback and feedfoward loop. The algorithm is an extension of the companion paper Part 1 of the this series. It should be noted that the feedback control loop is located in the top structure of fault trees, but contains the feedfoward control loop as one input.
