Categorical data analysis for equipment failure prediction
2008 34th Annual Conference of IEEE Industrial Electronics, 2008The effective approach to monitor the health state of equipment has long been a concern of industrial applications. This paper focuses on the categorical data analysis to build equipment degradation model for predicting equipment failure and monitoring the health state of equipment. Since large volumes of categorical data are generated and collected in

Failure analysis and diagnostics for railway trackside equipment
Engineering Failure Analysis, 2007Abstract In the future, the dependability of the railway system must be improved to accommodate higher train speeds, greater axle loads, and increased service frequency. One way of increasing the dependability is through improved maintenance and failure management.

Failure analysis of frontal load-bar equipment
Engineering Failure Analysis, 2005Abstract In the paint shop lines of an automotive plant, vehicles are moved around suspended by a vehicle-supporting mechanism composed of frontal and rear load-bars. Furthermore, the frontal load-bar is used as an electrical contact point for energy conduction, whereas the rear load-bar is electrically insulated.

Selecting Equipment for Failure Analysis
SAE Technical Paper Series, 1979<div class="htmlview paragraph">For every failure, whether at the field test site or with the customer, there is a related cause. It is imperative that the exact cause be determined in order that appropriate corrective action may be taken. The field test engineer is immediately faced with deciding where the analysis shall be performed.

Risk Analysis of Equipment Failure through Failure Mode and Effect Analysis and Fault Tree Analysis
Journal of Failure Analysis and Prevention, 2021Competitive environment in manufacturing sector cannot afford frequent breakdown of aged critical equipment. In this paper, an attempt is made to develop a method to determine critical equipment with the help of failure mode and effect analysis (FMEA) and occurrence of failure.

Failure of planetary pinions in earth moving equipment—a failure analysis approach
Engineering Failure Analysis, 2000A series of failures of planetary pinions occurred in the final drive epicyclic gearbox of large trucks used in underground mining. A metallurgical analysis indicated that failure had occurred by internal rupture of the gear. This was attributed to poor heat treatment procedures used in case hardening the gear.

Hierarchy of Controls Analysis for Equipment Failures Prevention
2015Equipment failures play significant roles in most accidents that occur and recur in the chemical process industry. Many risk reduction strategies were applied to prevent these accidents but the accidents keep on happening. In this study, 50 equipment-related accidents are analyzed based on their comprehensive accident investigation reports, retrieved ...

An Analysis of Major Errors and Equipment Failures in Anesthesia Management
Survey of Anesthesiology, 1984Adaptations of the critical-incident technique were used to gather reports of anesthesia-related human error and equipment failure. A total of 139 anesthesiologists, residents, and nurse-anesthetists from four hospitals participated as subjects in directed or open-ended interviews, and 48 of them functioned as "trained observers." A total of 1,089 ...

Analysis of equipment failures as contributors to chemical process accidents
Process Safety and Environmental Protection, 2013a b s t r a c t A database study of chemical process accident cases was carried out. The objective of the study is was to identify the reasons for equipment based accidents. The most frequent accident causing equipment were piping (25%), reactors and storage tanks (both 14%) and process vessels (10% of equipment accidents).
