When a failure or fault is detected, the product is adjusted or design change and is returned to its original condition before the failure or fault. Continuous improvement of the FMEA system is to determine an optimum product reliability that minimizes the total cost per unit time associated with inspection, repair, and the nondetection cost.

This paper proposes a procedure for designing an accelerated test using SMAT(Stress, (failure) Mechanism and Test) model describing the relation among stress, failure mode/mechanism and test method. In SMAT model the stresses to be applied are derived from the environmental factor analysis, the relative importance of those stresses can be estimated using AHP(Analytic Hierarchy Process) and failure mode/mechanism and test method are derived from the fields failure information and FMEA(Failure Mode and Effect Analysis). By applying the procedure we can make a selection of major factors to cause the failure of assembly and design the accelerated test using DOE(Design of Experiments) The procedure is illustrated with an qualification test case study of washing machine shaft assembly in "A" electric appliance company.

The purpose of FMECA is to identify parts and design whose damage can effect the mission performance and to improve the spacecraft design using these data. In consequence of this analysis, each failure mode which can be happened during operation and manufacturing period is identified, and their effects on mission performance are reviewed. In this technical report, the FMECA procedures and results for the satellite which is now under development are showed.

The purpose of reliability prediction is to estimate the basic reliability and basic reliability and mission reliability of system and to make a determination of whether these reliability requirements can be achieved with the proposed design. Also, potential design weakness can be identified through the FMECA process. This technical memo summarizes the KOMPSAT-2 reliability and FMECA analysis results.

The recent development of Sensor technology has broadened its applications to many fields of industry including railroad. The sensor technology enables the railroad system to monitor and control. This paper suggests the sensor based system design for evaluating and improving the reliability and safety of the ICT system. For this purpose, the reliability and the level of safety integrity of a general gateway have been predicted quantitatively and the supplementary design has been proposed for RAMS improvement. RAMS requirements for each life cycle stipulated in IEC 62278. RAMS activity is capable of producing significant and effective reductions in operation costs and time.

The SOLAS ship should carry at least 83 different types of equipment based on the SFI group codes and each of which consists of several to dozens of components. During ship operation, it is necessary to ensure the normal operation of such equipment, and remote maintenance is highly demanded for immediate repair in the event of a equipment fault. This study proposes to find suitable classification system and to derive database structure for remote maintenance of navigation and communication equipment. As a result of this study, the classification system of equipment should be layered into equipment type, model, and component, and main table in the database consists of FMEA, service history, case data through Q&A, Preventive Maintenance. A database was constructed for 140 navigation and communication equipment models and 750 components. In order to evaluate the practical effects, service engineer evaluated the usefulness using the cloud app.

According to the new rules and regulations (New SOLAS), major safety critical systems are to be designed to be redundant, which is called 'Redundancy Design'. This paper was to quantitatively analyze the degree of influence of the redundancy design applied to major safety critical systems using IMO's FSA(formal Safety Assessment) method. For the purpose of this study, the diesel engine system, which is actually one of major safety critical systems, was dealt with FMEA, FTA and ETA technique. In addition, whether the redundancy was met or not was verified and the degree of safety, or redundancy, was represented in terms of reliability. In conclusion, the safety of propulsion systems is possibly assessed systematically by estimating the risk level in terms of frequency and fatality.

Development of launch vehicle needs a large-scale and complicated System Engineering discipline interfacing to small-quantity production with special manufacturing processes. In general, the System Engineering discipline of launch vehicle has its relationship with Production, Operations, Product Assurance and Management disciplines and its internal partitions into the functions of System Engineering Integration & Control, Requirements Engineering, Analysis, Design and Configuration and Verification. As a function of Product Assurance, reliability of launch vehicle plays an significant role in risk management, system safety, flight safety and launch certification through design assurance. Moreover, major functions of systems engineering are integrated by means of reliability in the phases of design and verification. Therefore, derailed identification of system engineering interfaces of reliability, and execution of tasks for reliability assurance is required for successful development of launch vehicle. This paper identifies specific pattern and mechanism of the interfaces between reliability and system engineering.

Reliability is the very important issue for nuclear fields. In this paper, an analysis method is suggested to evaluate the level of availability improvement by adding the fault diagnosis function in the control system of Reactor Protection System. The Failure Mode Effect Analysis(FMEA), MIL-HDBK-217F, and Makov modelling techniques are used for availability assessment.

The objective of this study is to develope the reliability prediction model for Float Rated Integrating Gyroscope( :FRIG) at maximum loading. The equation of motion for FRIG is firstly derived to set up the reliability prediction model. To analysis reliability or all parts of the gyro is not easy due to their complicated structure. Therefore the failure parts are chosen by Failure Mode Effective Analysis (:FMEA). F.E.M is utilized to calculate loads for the selseced rotating assembly and pivot / jewel. The technical reliability is calculated by applying reliability design theory with these results and the performance reliability is sought through distribution estimation with error test data. The bulk reliability of gyroscope is sought by applying the two results. The present prediction results are compared with the accumulation time in good agreement.
