...Fatemeh Shaker; Arash Shahin; Saeed Jahanyan Purpose The purpose of this paper is to propose an integrative approach for improving failure modes and effects analysis (FMEA). Design/methodology/approach An extensive literature review on FMEA has been performed. Then, an integrative approach has...

.... This avoids the need of assigning weights to the criteria. In the context of failure modes and effects analysis (FMEA) it provides a probabilistic derivation for priority scores. An application of FMEA to the sector of services is discussed. Another area of application investigated is the assessment...

...Annibal Parracho Sant'Anna Purpose The purpose of this paper is to propose a method, derived from numerical evaluations on the criteria of security, frequency and detectability, of Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA), a probabilistic priority measure for potential failures; and to evaluate...

...Carla Estorilio; Richard K. Posso Purpose Use of failure mode and effect analysis (FMEA) is a requirement of ISO/TS 16949. However, research has shown that there are inconsistencies in the way the technique is applied in automotive suppliers. The aim of this study is to identify...

... in the operation/modification. Design/methodology/approach The methodology utilizes the strength of hazard and operability (HAZOP) study and failure mode and effect analysis (FMEA) to identify and prioritize the hidden potential failures present in the system. Fuzzy linguistics approach has been applied...

It is able to translate the reliability requisites of customers into functional requirements for the product in a structured manner based on a Failure Mode And Effect Analysis (FMEA). Besides, it then allows...

...Kai Meng Tay; Chee Peng Lim Purpose To propose a generic method to simplify the fuzzy logic‐based failure mode and effect analysis (FMEA) methodology by reducing the number of rules that needs to be provided by FMEA users for the fuzzy risk priority number (RPN) modeling process. Design...
