Economic growth in developing countries has resulted in increasing demand for infrastructure projects like power plants. To meet these development needs, the government of Iran has engaged companies to carry out power plant projects. While many papers have been written on the subject of project risk management, little information exists on the actual use of risk management in practice. The prim...

Failure mode effects and criticality analysis (FMECA) is a commonly adopted approach to defining, assessing, reducing possible failures in designs, systems, processes, products, services. Traditional FMECA ranks the failure modes of products based on risk priority number (RPN), which obtained by multiplying elements. Conventional has shortcomings badly handling unknown information unreasonably ...

Abstract Study question Can integration of a robotic system for semen analysis reduce operational failure modes and eliminate risk in the IVF laboratory? Summary answer A reduces eliminates severe risks including those associated with reduced patient experience increased stress. What is known already Recently, ever-evolving field has experienced rise innovations to boost laboratory performance....

a r t i c l e i n f o Keywords: Failure mode and effects analysis Data envelopment analysis Overall risks Risk priority ranking Failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA) is a method that examines potential failures in products or processes and has been used in many quality management systems. One important issue of FMEA is the determination of the risk priorities of failure modes. In this paper ...

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...

nowadays, watershed management practices are undertaken based on selective criteria and/or a specific purpose such as a decrease in flood risk, soil erosion and the like. in this respect,fuzzy logic has the ability to manage a wide range of options for decision making. this researchaimed to use the fuzzy logic theory to priorities watershed management practices consideringtime and budget constr...

Abstract Applying risk assessment approaches to improve quality in enterprises is of great importance especially for sectors that are labor-intensive and thus frequently encountered failures. One the methods used take precautions against failures caused by high variability this type sector failure mode effects analysis (FMEA). In study, a hybrid FMEA approach proposed so as measures textile whe...

Failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA) is a popular and useful approach applied to examine potential failures in different products, designs, processes, and services. As a vital index, the risk priority number (RPN) can determine the risk priorities of failure modes by some risk factors such as occurrence (O), severity (S), and detection (D). However, in FMEA, the traditional risk priority nu...
