Abstract:

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 propose a FMEAwhich uses generalized mixture operators to determine and aggregate the risk priorities of failure modes. In a numerical example, a FMEA of the LGS gas type circuit breaker product in Zanjan Switch Industries in Iran is presented to further illustrate the proposed method. The results show that the suggested approach is simple and provides more accurate risk assessments than the traditional RPN.

Prioritizing Potential Risks based on Failure Mode and Effects Analysis Using Data Envelopment Analysis: a case study

The need to establish power plants to supply the required electricity of the country has been rising due to increasing demand levels as well as the lack of governmental resources. Furthermore, the available traditional attitude in performing and conducting power plant projects has made government seek a modern attitude. This paper tries to use the topics that have been employed in automotive in...
