Abstract

Failure mode, effects and criticality analysis (FMECA) is an extension of failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA). FMEA is a bottom-up, Inductive analytical method which may be performed at either the functional or piece-part level. FMECA extends FMEA by including a criticality analysis, which is used to chart the probability of failure modes against the severity of their consequences. The result highlights failure modes with relatively high probability and seventy of consequences, allowing remedial effort to be directed where it will produce the greatest value. The objective of FMECA is to identify all failure modes in a system design. Its purpose is to find all critical and catastrophic failures that can be minimized at the earliest.
