Abstract

Designers must acquire methodologies to prevent accidents and failure of engineering devices, structures, and systems. By analyzing how errors were introduced in the design process and how they might be avoided, the study of failure raises awareness for how better quality and reliability might be achieved in engineering designs. The methodologies of the study of failure consist of analyzing the backgrounds and the causes of the accidents or failures, studying general concepts of the causes, and applying the general concepts to a newly created design. Students studying these methodologies will improve their ability to create safe and reliable design solutions.
