Abstract |
FMEA is a system engineering and analysis technique in an organized, illustrative approach to identify the trouble areas of a system. From the management point of view, FMEA should be able to be prepared from the beginning of the system development. For a small and simple system, such an FMEA is no problem. For a large and complex system, one has to rely on the help of a sophisticated computer. It is the purpose of this paper to present a more general algorithm to perform FMEA to help in the building of a feasible mathematical reliability model for any system whose components may not necessarily be S-independent. |
