[Research] Improving reliability engineering in product development based on design theory: the case of FMEA in the semiconductor industry

In industry, the failure mode and effect analysis (FMEA) methodology is one of the main tools used for reliability management in product design and development. However, the academic literature highlights several shortcomings of the FMEA methodology. Therefore, the main purposes

From FMEA as a problem solving method to a design-oriented process: Toward a design perspective of FMEA

The main purpose of this paper is to answer this question: How to explain FMEA difficulties and how to improve FMEA methodology in order to be able to design a better risk management strategy in NPD? First, this research will
