  2. Failure mode and effects analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Failure_mode_and_effects...

    A PFMEA will focus on process failure modes (such as inserting the wrong drill bit). Failure cause and/or mechanism Defects in requirements, design, process, quality control, handling or part application, which are the underlying cause or sequence of causes that initiate a process (mechanism) that leads to a failure mode over a certain time.

  3. Failure mode, effects, and criticality analysis - Wikipedia

    The failure mode may then be charted on a criticality matrix using severity code as one axis and probability level code as the other. For quantitative assessment, modal criticality number is calculated for each failure mode of each item, and item criticality number is calculated for each item. The criticality numbers are computed using the ...

  4. Failure cause - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Failure_cause

    A part failure mode is the way in which a component failed "functionally" on the component level. Often a part has only a few failure modes. For example, a relay may fail to open or close contacts on demand. The failure mechanism that caused this can be of many different kinds, and often multiple factors play a role at the same time.

  5. Failure analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Failure_analysis

    Failure analysis is the process of collecting and analyzing data to determine the cause of a failure, often with the goal of determining corrective actions or liability. According to Bloch and Geitner, ”machinery failures reveal a reaction chain of cause and effect… usually a deficiency commonly referred to as the symptom…”. [ 1 ]

  6. Physics of failure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physics_of_failure

    An approach to the design and development of reliable product to prevent failure, based on the knowledge of root cause failure mechanisms. The Physics of Failure (PoF) concept is based on the understanding of the relationships between requirements and the physical characteristics of the product and their variation in the manufacturing processes ...

    The mechanism responds no matter what, whether the goal is "positive" or "negative". It will move toward it. It will move toward it. The most powerful goal image is an image of ourselves, because it causes a wide variety of useful or harmful behaviors from the mechanism.

  8. Traffic psychology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traffic_psychology

    Traffic psychology is a discipline of psychology that studies the relationship between psychological processes and the behavior of road users. In general, traffic psychology aims to apply theoretical aspects of psychology in order to improve traffic mobility by helping to develop and apply crash countermeasures, as well as by guiding desired behaviors through education and the motivation of ...

  9. Failure modes, effects, and diagnostic analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Failure_Modes,_Effects...

    Under the functional failure mode approach, the actual functional failure modes of the product are identified during a DFMEA. During the detailed FMEDA, each component failure mode is mapped to a functional failure mode. The functional failure modes are then categorized according to product failure mode in a particular application. [13]
