A manufacturing failure mode avoidance framework for aerospace manufacturingGoodland, J., Campean, Felician, Caunce, A., Victory, J.L., Jupp, M.L. January 2013 (has links)
No / Enhancement in productivity and cost effectiveness of high value manufacturing requires a process based management strategy. This paper introduces a Manufacturing Failure Mode Avoidance (MFMA) framework based on 4 high level process steps and underpinned by a sequence of engineering and process analysis tools to support a structured function-based decomposition of complex manufacturing processes and a continuous flow of information towards the development of robust control plans. The approach draws from experience in the automotive industry, where Failure Mode Avoidance (FMA) has been strategically adopted to achieve a step change in the effectiveness of business and engineering processes associated with the product creation processes. The paper presents a case study of the deployment of the MFMA framework to an aircraft manufacturing process followed by a broader discussion of the strength of the approach and its generic applicability to complex high value manufacturing engineering.

Structural performance of staircase post connection systems under monotonic and reversed cyclic static loadsSpinelli Correa, Laurice Mara 09 August 2019 (has links)
The objective of this research is to develop the relationship between starting steps and post newels attached by different connection systems. This research focuses on analyzing solid and box posts connection performance under monotonic and reversed cyclic loads by following European standards EN 26891:1991 and EN 12512:2001, respectively. Moment carrying capacity, stiffness, energy dissipation, and ductility were calculated. Four connection systems were tested, two for solid posts (Sure-Tite™ and Fas-N-Fast™) and two for box posts (L-brackets and wood block with lag bolt). Connections had higher load capacity during the monotonic loading protocol than in the reversed cyclic loading protocol. No strength difference was observed between the solid post connection systems. However, Sure-Tite™ presented a more ductile behavior. For box posts, the L-brackets connection system was superior in strength, while the wood block with lag bolt system had a greater ductile behavior.

Important systems engineering analysis tools : failure mode and effects analysis and hazard analysisMoore, Alicia Louise Leonard 18 February 2011 (has links)
The goal of every program or project manager is to have a safe reliable product and to have an understanding of the residual risk of operating that product. Two very important systems engineering analysis tools to achieve those objectives are Hazard Analysis and Failure Modes and Effects Analysis. Sometimes seen strictly as Safety and Reliability tasks, these analyses are key to a successful program or project and require input from all stakeholders. When viewed in the Systems Engineering process, Safety and Reliability are truly specialty disciplines within Systems Engineering. Hazard Analysis is used to improve system safety while Failure Modes and Effects Analysis is used to identify ways to increase product reliability; both analyses are required to improve systems design and fully capture the risk for a system or program. Depending on how the analyses are scoped, there could be a perception of overlap and duplication of effort. This paper will present a systems engineering approach to show the need and benefits for performing both types of analyses. Both analysis processes are required to ensure that all possible hazardous conditions and failure modes have been identified and addressed to minimize overall risk to the program/project and to ensure a safe and reliable system. / text

The analyzed components are: 1. Bearing 2. Winding 3. Sealing of terminal box and terminal cap. 4. Motor feet’s 5. Shields Bearing which is after the winding the most critical component, it is a sensitive part and it is very important to follow instructions for maintenance and lubrication to avoid early bearing damages. Winding is the clearest most critical component in our analyzes, this is because there is many parts that plays role in the windings function, copper wires, isolations, impregnation and during the process you can have failures that affect the winding in a negative way immediately but also in a later phase when the motor is running. Sealing of the terminal box and cap describes those failures that can occur when the sealing is not effective and compact, and what happens is that you get dirt and damp in to the box and how it possibly can affect the connection box and other electrical applications. The failure analyze on feets and shields deals with design faults, tolerance faults and how it affects the components. In the report we describe the functions of the components, processes, maintenance and that is in general what we have in our FMEA analyses, however in the report we describe it more thoroughly. After the description of every component we have the FMEA of respective component attached. The FMEA analyses are our results in this work, in the analyses we show many possible failures at each component and also which failures are most critical to deal with.

Hybrid decision support system for risk criticality assessment and risk analysisAbdelgawad, Mohamed Abdelrahman Mohamed 06 1900 (has links)
Risk management is essential for the construction industry to successfully fulfill project objectives. Several studies were conducted in the past decade to support quantitative risk analysis. These studies were based on using some of the commonly used techniques such as risk matrix, decision trees, Monte Carlo, and sensitivity analysis. However, some of these techniques are limited because they either do not support quantitative risk analysis, or are difficult to be utilized due to the required amount of data to support quantitative risk analysis. To address such limitations, a comprehensive framework was developed, based on combining three well-known techniques in reliability engineering, i.e., failure mode and effect analysis, fault trees, and event trees with fuzzy logic. Fuzzy logic and failure mode and effect analysis were first combined to provide an answer to the problem of identifying of critical risk events through the development of a fuzzy expert system software package named Risk Criticality Analyzer. To support quantitative risk analysis in the construction industry, fault tree and event tree were combined, and fuzzy logic is used to solve both of them. Fuzzy arithmetic operations on fuzzy numbers were used to represent logical gates in the fault tree structure, and to conduct event tree analysis. To automate solving both fault trees and event trees, Fuzzy Reliability Analyzer was designed and implemented using Visual Basic.net. Both tools were then validated through case studies. The results indicate that by using the proposed methodology, the risk can be assessed effectively and efficiently. The proposed framework presented in this research provides the contribution of combining fuzzy logic with failure mode and effect analysis, fault trees, and event trees in a comprehensive framework to support risk identification, risk assessment, and risk response. Since the proposed framework is based on using linguistic terms, risk analysts are offered a more convenient and practical framework to conduct risk analysis. The proposed framework was able to address several limitations attributed to the conventional application of failure mode and effect analysis and offered a generic framework that can be adapted to fit any industry or organization. / Construction Engineering and Management

A New Approach to Groundwater Remediation Treatability Studies - Moving Flow-through Column Experiments from Laboratory to In Situ OperationJanuary 2013 (has links)
abstract: In situ remediation of contaminated aquifers, specifically in situ bioremediation (ISB), has gained popularity over pump-and-treat operations. It represents a more sustainable approach that can also achieve complete mineralization of contaminants in the subsurface. However, the subsurface reality is very complex, characterized by hydrodynamic groundwater movement, geological heterogeneity, and mass-transfer phenomena governing contaminant transport and bioavailability. These phenomena cannot be properly studied using commonly conducted laboratory batch microcosms lacking realistic representation of the processes named above. Instead, relevant processes are better understood by using flow-through systems (sediment columns). However, flow-through column studies are typically conducted without replicates. Due to additional sources of variability (e.g., flow rate variation between columns and over time), column studies are expected to be less reproducible than simple batch microcosms. This was assessed through a comprehensive statistical analysis of results from multiple batch and column studies. Anaerobic microbial biotransformations of trichloroethene and of perchlorate were chosen as case studies. Results revealed that no statistically significant differences were found between reproducibility of batch and column studies. It has further been recognized that laboratory studies cannot accurately reproduce many phenomena encountered in the field. To overcome this limitation, a down-hole diagnostic device (in situ microcosm array - ISMA) was developed, that enables the autonomous operation of replicate flow-through sediment columns in a realistic aquifer setting. Computer-aided design (CAD), rapid prototyping, and computer numerical control (CNC) machining were used to create a tubular device enabling practitioners to conduct conventional sediment column studies in situ. A case study where two remediation strategies, monitored natural attenuation and bioaugmentation with concomitant biostimulation, were evaluated in the laboratory and in situ at a perchlorate-contaminated site. Findings demonstrate the feasibility of evaluating anaerobic bioremediation in a moderately aerobic aquifer. They further highlight the possibility of mimicking in situ remediation strategies on the small-scale in situ. The ISMA is the first device offering autonomous in situ operation of conventional flow-through sediment microcosms and producing statistically significant data through the use of multiple replicates. With its sustainable approach to treatability testing and data gathering, the ISMA represents a versatile addition to the toolbox of scientists and engineers. / Dissertation/Thesis / Ph.D. Civil and Environmental Engineering 2013
