Recently, sustainable supply chain management (SSCM) has become one of the important subjects in the industry and academia. Supplier selection, as a strategic decision, plays a significant role in SSCM. Researchers use different multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) methods to evaluate and select sustainable suppliers. In the previous studies, evaluation is solely based on the desirable feature...

Failure modes and effects analysis (FMEA) is used in the manufacturing industry to improve product quality and productivity. However, the traditional approach has many shortcomings that affect its effectiveness and limit its usefulness, especially in the early stages of design. Automating the FMEA report generation process seems to answer some of these problems, and there has been much past and...

Many processes are safety critical and therefore could benefit from proactive safety analysis techniques that attempt to identify weaknesses of such processes before they are put into use. In this paper, we propose an approach that automatically derives Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA) information from processes modeled in the Little-JIL process definition language. Typically FMEA inform...

The paper describes recent work to improve the safety process for aero-engine controllers. The role of FMEA is discussed in the context of the safety and certification processes, with reference to ARP 4754 and ARP 4761. Whilst the ARPs' emphasis on top-down hazard-driven approaches is valuable, it is concluded that the role of FMEA should not be down-played. Instead it should be recognized that...

The quality of midsole products significantly impacts the quality, durability, and comfort users shoe manufactured by ABC company. high percentage average number product defects based on yield data for 12 months is 3.1% which exceeds required company 2%. There are six types in midsole: yellowing, porous, bubbles, broken, over left material trimming. Three from focus improvement Pareto concept, ...

PT Alis Jaya Ciptatama (AJC) is a company engaged in the furniture industry, where products are exported. One of from AJC wine bottle rack. In production racks at AJC, many product defects were found. Therefore, it necessary to conduct further research determine quality product, so that correct improvement obtained. The purpose this study was limits statistical control and factors causing provi...

The paper presents work in progress aiming at extending Failure-modes-and-effects Analysis (FMEA) to include embedded software. It is based on the insight that requirements on Software FMEA in this context are only dependent on the required functionality of the physical system, which, in particular, allows the consideration of a finite set of qualitatively characterized software failures.

Behniyaa To identify the impediments to the deployment of knowledge management program in the provincial department of education in Yazd, a questionnaire was completed by a carefully selected sample of 2...

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 modes and e€ects analysis (FMEA) is a quality improvement and risk assessment tool commonly used in industry. It is a living document used to capture design and process failure information. However, the traditional FMEA has its limitations in terms of knowledge capture and reuse. In order to increase its e€ectiveness, much research has been carried out to ®nd an e€ective way to provide ...
