toppling failure is one of the most common modes of failure of rock slopes in layered rock strata. flexural toppling is one of the well-known modes of the failure. this type of failure occurs due to bending stress. in this article, a brief yet comprehensive review of toppling failure is presented. firstly, the conditions and general mechanism of the failure are described. then, experimental, th...

the failure mode and effects analysis (fmea) is a widely used analytical technique that helps to identify and reduce the risks of failure in a system, component, or process. one important issue of fmea is the determination of the risk priorities of failure modes. risk ranking is produced in order to prioritize the focus on each of the failure modes that are identified. in this study, we applied...

background and objectives: surgical cancelation is a significant source of time and resource waste, patientsafety risk, and stress for patients and their families. in this study, a risk management-based approach is developed to prioritize factors contributing to surgical cancellation. methods: factors leading to surgical cancellation were comprehensively classified based on literature review.a...

introduction: everyone who wants to analyze the safety needs to choose one method among all available ways. this study was carried out to identify energies and barriers in lpg storage spheres in a petrochemical complex using etba method. it also examines the quantitative evaluation of failure modes and their effects as well as evaluation of effect of fmea and comparing the results plus the iden...

Delamination is one of the most common failure modes in composite structures. In the case of in-plane compressional loading, delamination of a layered flat structure can cause a local buckling in delaminated area which subsequently affects the overall stiffness of the initial structure. This leads to an early failure of the overall structure. Moreover, with an increase in load, the delaminated ...

This study evaluated the effect of macro steel fiber (SF), micro glass fiber (GF) and micro polypropylene fiber (PF) in lightweight aggregate concrete, (LWAC) beams reinforced with glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars. Firstly, concrete mixtures with different volume fractions of GF, PF and SF were tested up to compressive strength, then determine the optimum fiber content GF, PF and SF a...
