The main research intent of this paper is to introduce the use of fault tree analysis (FTA) and failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA) in conjunction to analyse the risk and reliability of a complex mechatronic system in both qualitative and quantitative manner. The major focus is on handling imprecise and vague information with the help of fuzzy synthesis of information. A complex mechatroni...

Managers are constantly being told that the quality of data is insufficient for producing reliable results from business models. Reliability analysis is no exception. In this paper, the authors show that it is possible to retrospectively improve the quality of failure histories stored in computerised maintenance management systems (CMMS). A tool was developed to help reliability professionals a...

In order to increase process and product quality fast least costly, it is very useful focus on the that causes important problems. this study, problems related processes in a company produces on-vehicle equipment automotive industry are examined. The purpose of study provide improvement perspective reduce defects. Fault Mode Effects Analysis (FMEA) applied detect faults, determine their priorit...

prevention of medication errors in neonatal intensive care units (nicus) is of paramount importance due to age-specific and physiological conditions of neonates. this study aimed to evaluate the risk of medication prescription and administration via failure mode and effects analysis (fmea), which was carried out at the research and medical teaching center of imam reza hospital in mashhad, iran....

Recently, there has been a growing demand to address failures in the fairness of artificial intelligence (AI) systems. Current techniques for improving AI systems are focused on broad changes norms, procedures and algorithms used by companies that implement those However, some organizations may require detailed methods identify which user groups disproportionately impacted specific components t...

Despite multiple efforts to improve safety in construction, insufficient hazard identification remains a significant concern. Failure address these hazards can lead severe incidents that harm workers and firm’s reputation. This problem is especially prevalent construction small medium enterprises (SMEs) due their limited resources, reliance on manual labor, lack of technical expertise regarding...

The development of safety critical systems becomes even harder since the complexity of these systems grows continuously. Moreover, this kind of process involves the use of powerful design methods and precise reliability techniques that utilize dissimilar models and construction policy. In this article we propose a method to unify and enhance this process by linking functional design phase using...

Functional safety analysis (FSA), that is checking whether a designed artifact will perform safely even under the presence of failing components, has gained significant importance in different areas, including aeronautic and automotive systems. The same applies to failure-modes-and-effects analysis (FMEA) and fault-tree analysis (FTA) as the major contributing processes. FSA is laborand time-co...
