Failure Modes and Effects Analysis

2021
The inductive tabular system analysis method, failure modes and effects analysis (FMEA), and its variants are the most often used system analysis method type. The chapter presents the classical definitions of the FMEA method as well as application domains on system (functional) concept, system design, and the production process level. Such distinctions

Failure Mode and Effect Analysis

2009
Managing risk is a must for any organization. Clause 0.1 of ISO 9004 mentions risk management along with cost and benefit considerations given its importance to the organization and its customers. Clause 5.4.2 also includes risk assessment and mitigation data as necessary inputs for efficient and effective quality planning.

Failure Mode and Effect Analysis

SAE Technical Paper Series, 1977
<div class="htmlview paragraph">Before-the-fact analytical tools are often helpful in designing for reliability. The methodology is not new; however, there is a need to improve the visibility and value of the tools, and the determination of when and to what level of detail to apply them.</div> <div class="htmlview paragraph">A ...

Failure Mode and Effects Analysis

2014
Failure Mode and Effects Analysis, popularly known as FMEA, is a technique that compels designers to think on the possible failures of equipment and their consequences for achieving total reliability. All engineers without exception do apply FMEA in the design of electronic equipment to prevent obvious design errors, and examples are provided for the ...

Cost‐oriented failure mode and effects analysis

International Journal of Quality & Reliability Management, 2008
PurposeConventional Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) may lead to wrong decisions in terms of a company's financial objectives. Thus, the aim of this paper is to develop an improved approach to prioritizing failures within the procedure of the FMEA.Design/methodology/approachFirst, the current “risk priority number” (RPN) being used within the ...

Failure Modes and Effects Analysis

2015
This chapter extends the principles of failure modes and effects analysis (FMEA) introduced in Chap. 2 with medical case examples. This chapter explores inductive reasoning or “forwards thinking” in the context of neurological diagnosis and treatment.

Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA)

2016
Although statistical variances and unpredicted events are part of operations routine, analyzing events commonalities and dependencies can reduce production deviations occurrences. FMEA is a tool for proactively identifying those failure commonalities and dependencies ahead of their occurrence, through listing the potential effect, rating them according

Software failure modes and effects analysis

2013 Proceedings Annual Reliability and Maintainability Symposium (RAMS), 2013
Failure modes and effects analysis (FMEA) is an effective way to identify and mitigate potential problems within the design of a system. By adapting the general process outlined in MIL-STD-1629A [1] to the design of software, a rigorous software FMEA (SFMEA) process has been developed to drive the identification of risks to safety, reliability, and ...

Software Failure Modes and Effects Analysis

IEEE Transactions on Reliability, 1979
This concept paper discusses the possible use of failure modes and effects analysis (FMEA) as a means to produce more reliable software. FMEA is a fault avoidance technique whose objective is to identify hazards in requirements that have the potential to either endanger mission success or significantly impact life-cycle costs.

Modelling Failure Modes and Effects Analysis

International Journal of Quality & Reliability Management, 1993
Presents a critical review of the method of FMEA and in particular of the risk priority number (RPN) used for ranking failure modes. Though the method itself is of great use, the calculation of the RPN lacks a proper model as a base and is thus internally inconsistent and potentially misleading.
