Fault tree analysis is a widespread industry standard for assessing system reliability. Standard (static) fault trees model the failure behaviour of systems in dependence of their component failures. To overcome their limited expressive power, common dependability patterns, such as spare management, functional dependencies, and sequencing are considered. A plethora of such dynamic fault trees (DFTs) have been defined in the literature. They differ in e.g., the types of gates (elements), their meaning, expressive power, the way in which failures propagate, how elements are claimed and activated, and how spare races are resolved. This paper systematically uncovers these differences and categorises existing DFT variants. As these differences may have huge impact on the reliability assessment, awareness of these impacts is important when using DFT modelling and analysis.
