Several CLIC failure modes may cause beam loss at collimators between the linac and the collision point. Studying sample failures by computer simulation, we derive performance requirements for the CLIC collimation system. In particular, we discuss the effect of energy variations due to rf phase jitter, reduced current, or malfunction of one drive beam ...

Failure Modes and Mechanisms: Failure Modes and Mechanisms in MEMS
2010As defined in Chapter 2, reliability engineering is the process of analyzing the expected or actual failure modes of a product and identifying actions to reduce or mitigate their effect. A Failure Mode describes the way in which a product or process could potentially fail to perform its desired function and can be defined in several ways, of which the ...

Consensus with dual failure modes
IEEE Transactions on Parallel and Distributed Systems, 1991The problem of achieving consensus in a distributed system is discussed. Systems are treated in which either or both of two types of faults may occur: dormant (essentially omission and timing faults) and arbitrary (exhibiting arbitrary behavior, commonly referred to as Byzantine).

Psychiatry faces a number of challenges due largely to the complexity of the relationship between mind and brain. Starting from the now well-justified assumption that the mind is instantiated in the physical substrate of the brain, understanding this relationship is going to be critical to any understanding of function and dysfunction.

Failure Modes and Failure Analysis
2012Reliability is related to all levels of an application, from component or device level to system or environment level. Even though all these levels are linked and interact with each other, they are described separately in this chapter. For each level of the system, the dominant failure modes are summarized, and where possible related models describing ...

Computers are an essential part of our everyday work environment. Engineering, manufacturing, banking, health, education, aviation, defense, and the government all depend on a myriad of functions performed by computers. It is essential for the smooth functioning of these activities that computer systems provide the service on demand, without ...

A Note on Failure Mode Reasoning
2019Safety Instrumented Systems (SIS) protect major hazard facilities against catastrophic accidents. A SIS consists of hardware components and a software part, the program. Failure Mode Reasoning (FMR) is a novel abstraction technique for identifying and quantifying failure modes of SIS hardware components based on an analysis of the SIS program.

Failure mode assumptions and assumption coverage
[1992] Digest of Papers. FTCS-22: The Twenty-Second International Symposium on Fault-Tolerant Computing, 1995A method is proposed for the formal analysis of failure mode assumptions and for the evaluation of the dependability of systems whose design correctness is conditioned on the validity of such assumptions. Formal definitions are given for the types of errors that can affect items of service delivered by a system or component.

Engineering Fracture Mechanics, 1973
Abstract The mechanical response of elastomeric materials is known to depend greatly on their ability to crystallize under strain, on the difference between the glass transition and the usage temperature, on the density of permanent and transient crosslinks, and on the filler. Strength properties and failure incidences of high modulus polymers follow
