Features: This book is authored by Dr. D.H. Stamatis of the American Society for Quality (ASQ) and is a comprehensive guide specifically designed for Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA). It caters to professionals at various levels and from different disciplines. The book provides an in-depth explanation of the application processes of System FMEA, Design FMEA, Process FMEA, and Service FMEA, as well as the fundamental principles of its implementation. Through this book, readers will gain a thorough understanding of FMEA concepts, the classification of FMEA types, the creation of FMEA, and the integrated application of FMEA with other analytical methods. When Dr. Stamatis published the second edition, he added and supplemented new ISO 9000:2000 standards, Six Sigma methodologies, ISO/TS16949 standards, the concept of "robustness," TE9000 standards, and reliability and maintainability requirements. This book not only elaborates on the theoretical aspects of FMEA but also offers unique insights directly derived from engineering practices. As such, it is suitable for reliability engineers, quality engineers, and graduate students in various industry fields.
