... to failure mode, effects and criticality analysis (FMECA) for selecting and prioritizing high-risk failures as well as optimizing the RCM performance. More specifically, the criteria of severity, detectability and frequency of occurrence were selected for risk assessment based on the previous studies...

... surfaces of drams or tubes. The detail criticality rankings of the above three factors are given in the Table III . In the traditional failure mode effect and criticality analysis (FMECA) the criticalities of the failure modes are classified into several groups of risk, known as risk...

... the FMECA and for each admissible strategy, the costs and the potential risk priority number (RPN) reduction. Finally, an industrial case concerning an Italian paper-mill plant is reported to demonstrate the effectiveness of the approach presented. Findings – The paper finds that the application...

...Marcello Braglia The aim of this paper is to develop a new tool for reliability and failure mode analysis by integrating the conventional aspects of the popular failure mode and criticality analysis (FMECA) procedure with economic considerations. Here FMECA is approached as a multi‐criteria...
