How Do we Set Reliability Requirements? Abstract Chris and Carl discuss a listener question on FMEA RPN and connection to reliability requirements. Key Points Join Chris and Carl as they discuss RPN is not a reliability metric and there are better ways to do allocation to set requirements. Topics include: Multiplying severity, occurrence, and detection does not provide a valid risk value. A misunderstanding of critical analysis and the use of failure rates, which are not required Reliability requirements should precede FMEA based on customer and business needs and expectations.

Special Characteristics Abstract Carl and Dianna discuss two of the least understood and potentially powerful FMEA data elements: Special Product Characteristics for Design FMEAs, and Special Process Characteristics for Process FMEAs. Key Points Join Carl and Dianna as they discuss the application of Special Characteristics in FMEAs. Topics include: What are some other names for Special Characteristics? What is definition of characteristic, product characteristic, and process characteristic? How can special characteristic be used in FMEAs? Do special characteristics require extra controls in the Process Control Plan? Who defines special characteristics? What are some examples of special characteristics? What is the process to identify special characteristics? How can an FMEA identify candidate special characteristics? The Cause description of a Design FMEA can be used to identify a candidate special product characteristics What happens when too many items are designated as special characteristics? Why is it important to identify only the vital few special characteristics? How can severity and occurrence ratings in an FMEA support designating special characteristics? Why should a company have a defined process to assign special characteristics? Enjoy an episode of Speaking of Reliability. Where you can join friends as they discuss reliability topics.

How HA and FMEA Relate Abstract Dianna and Carl discuss the relationship between Hazard Analysis (HA) and Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA). Key Points Join Dianna and Carl as they discuss the how HA and FMEA relate and how they can work in synergy to create safer products. Topics include: Fundamental differences and similarities How HA can effectively quantify risk by calculating the probability of harm, a dimension often missing from FMEA Practical techniques for identification and collective ownership of ideas Early HA and FMEA in a project can drive design decisions, prioritize testing, and improve overall risk management Enjoy an episode of Speaking of Reliability. Where you can join friends as they discuss reliability topics. Join us as we discuss topics ranging from design for reliability techniques to field data analysis approaches. Download Audio RSS Show Notes Hosts Carl Carlson and Dianna Deeney delve into the often-misunderstood interface between Hazard Analysis (HA) and Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) and how HA and FMEA relate. While often seen as separate activities, they discuss how these two crucial processes can be integrated to enhance product safety and efficiency. Effective risk management planning, starting at the beginning of a project, is key to successfully aligning HA and FMEA. FMEA typically begins with item identification, followed by describing functions and then failure modes. In contrast, Hazard Analysis often starts by listing high-level hazards such as electrical or physical risks, taking a top-down, system-level view that considers the product’s environment and users. Although a hazard itself can sometimes function as an effect in an FMEA, a significant difference lies in their outputs: HA can lead to a quantifiable probability of harm by combining the likelihood of a hazardous situation with the likelihood of harm given that situation. FMEA, on the other hand, provides a qualitative severity assessment and the likelihood of occurrence of a failure mode and its associated cause, but not the overall likelihood of harm. HA and FMEA can complement each other; for instance, a hazard analysis can inform an FMEA to ensure no critical hazards are missed, or high-severity FMEA findings can prompt a thorough HA. Ultimately, integrating these analyses helps teams prioritize design activities and testing efforts based on a clearer understanding of potential risks.
