In linear algebra, a defective matrix is a square matrix that does not have a complete basis of eigenvectors, and is therefore not diagonalizable. In particular, an n × n {\displaystyle n\times n} matrix is defective if and only if it does not have n {\displaystyle n} linearly independent eigenvectors. [ 1 ]
In quality management, a nonconformity (sometimes referred to as a non conformance or nonconformance or defect) is a deviation from a specification, a standard, or an expectation. Nonconformities or nonconformance can be classified in seriousness multiple ways, though a typical classification scheme may have three to four levels, including ...
[3] [4] It is unclear whether this interpretation will be brought into general usage, but the underlying meaning remains the same. An acceptable quality level is a test and/or inspection standard that prescribes the range of the number of defective components that is considered acceptable when random sampling those components during an inspection.
A product defect is any characteristic of a product which hinders its usability for the purpose for which it was designed and manufactured. Product defects arise most prominently in legal contexts regarding product safety , where the term is applied to "anything that renders the product not reasonably safe". [ 1 ]
A defect can be defined as a nonconformance of a quality characteristic (e.g. strength, width, response time) to its specification. DPMO is stated in opportunities per million units for convenience: processes that are considered highly capable (e.g., processes of Six Sigma quality) are those that experience fewer than 3.4 defects per million ...
[1] In general, acceptance sampling is employed when one or several of the following hold: [2] testing is destructive; the cost of 100% inspection is very high; and; 100% inspection takes too long. A wide variety of acceptance sampling plans is available. For example, multiple sampling plans use more than two samples to reach a conclusion.
In linguistics, a defective verb is a verb that either lacks a conjugated form or entails incomplete conjugation, and thus cannot be conjugated for certain grammatical tenses, aspects, persons, genders, or moods that the majority of verbs or a "normal" or regular verb in a particular language can be conjugated for [citation needed].
[2] Leads separated from the capacitor by rough handling during storage, assembly or operation, leading to an open failure. The failure can occur invisibly inside the packaging and is measurable. [2] Increase of dissipation factor due to contamination of capacitor materials, particularly from flux and solvent residues. [2]
