FAILURE ANALYSIS
Failure analysis is a methodology where scientific processes are used to
determine why a device did not function as intended.
Hose failure, due to excessive clamp
force, results in strain on a fuel hose
causing a fuel leak and fire in the
engine compartment.
Connecting rod buckled at arrow as a
result of hydrostatic lock from water
ingestion.
Crane failure as a result of overloading.
The crane was slowly moving a large
structure into position when one track
sank into soft soil, causing an overload.
A clutch pressure plate sustained a sudden failure
as a result of improperly torqued
mounting bolts.
