The marine industry is recognising the powerful techniques that can be used to perform risk analysis of marine systems. One technique that has been applied in both national and international marine regulations and operations is failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA). This risk analysis tool assumes a failure mode, which occurs in a system/component through some failure mechanism; the effect of this failure is then evaluated. A risk ranking is produced in order to prioritise the attention for each of the failure modes identified. The traditional method utilises the risk priority number (RPN) ranking system. This method determines the RPN by finding the multiplication of factor scores. The three factors considered are probability of failure, severity and detectability. Traditional FMEA has been criticised to have several drawbacks. These drawbacks are addressed in this paper. A new proposed approach, which utilises the fuzzy rules base and grey relation theory is presented. |
