چکیده
This study describes the Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) from the point of view of different artificial intelligence approaches. After discussing the main drawbacks of the traditional methodology and summarize the main techniques recommended for its improvement in the recent literature, three techniques of Artificial Intelligence are compared: a fuzzy inference system (FIS), a case reasoning based method (CBR) and a vector support machine based method (VSM). From the results of this study we conclude that the best approach to properly classify the causes of risk of a system or service is the fuzzy inference system, method that, in addition, allows to overcome most of the drawbacks associated with the traditional methodology.

متن کاملImproving the Calculation of RPN in the FMEA Method by Combining a Nonlinear Model with Revised TOPSIS and Fuzzy Logic
Introduction: Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) is a structured way to find and understand the states of a system’s failure and to calculate the resulting effects. In this method, which has been criticized by many researchers, the risk priority number is obtained for each failure mode based on the multiplication of the three parameters of occurrence (O), severity (S) and detection (D). I...

Failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA) is a method based on teamwork to identify potential failures and problems in a system, design, process and service in order to remove them. The important part of this method is determining the risk priorities of failure modes using the risk priority number (RPN). However, this traditional RPN method has several shortcomings. Therefore, in this paper we p...

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...
