  2. Fault detection and isolation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fault_detection_and_isolation

    Fault detection, isolation, and recovery (FDIR) is a subfield of control engineering which concerns itself with monitoring a system, identifying when a fault has occurred, and pinpointing the type of fault and its location. Two approaches can be distinguished: A direct pattern recognition of sensor readings that indicate a fault and an analysis ...

  3. Fluorescent penetrant inspection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorescent_penetrant...

    Liquid penetrant inspection of non-magnetic aircraft metal parts. Fluorescent penetrant inspection (FPI) is a type of dye penetrant inspection in which a fluorescent dye is applied to the surface of a non-porous material in order to detect defects that may compromise the integrity or quality of the part in question.

  4. Failure analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Failure_analysis

    Failure analysis is the process of collecting and analyzing data to determine the cause of a failure, often with the goal of determining corrective actions or liability.. According to Bloch and Geitner, ”machinery failures reveal a reaction chain of cause and effect… usually a deficiency commonly referred to as the symptom…”

  5. Fault tree analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fault_tree_analysis

    A fault tree diagram. Fault tree analysis (FTA) is a type of failure analysis in which an undesired state of a system is examined. This analysis method is mainly used in safety engineering and reliability engineering to understand how systems can fail, to identify the best ways to reduce risk and to determine (or get a feeling for) event rates of a safety accident or a particular system level ...

  6. Evaporative light scattering detector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evaporative_light...

    An evaporative light scattering detector (ELSD) is a destructive chromatography detector, used in conjunction with high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), [1] ultra high-performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC), [2] purification liquid chromatography such as flash or preparative chromatography (using a splitter), countercurrent or ...

  7. Chromatography detector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromatography_detector

    A chromatography detector is a device that detects and quantifies separated compounds as they elute from the chromatographic column.These detectors are integral to various chromatographic techniques, such as gas chromatography, [1] liquid chromatography, and high-performance liquid chromatography, [2] and supercritical fluid chromatography [3] among others.

  8. Failure mode and effects analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Failure_mode_and_effects...

    graph with an example of steps in a failure mode and effects analysis. Failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA; often written with "failure modes" in plural) is the process of reviewing as many components, assemblies, and subsystems as possible to identify potential failure modes in a system and their causes and effects.

  9. Charged aerosol detector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charged_Aerosol_Detector

    The charged aerosol detector (CAD) is a detector used in conjunction with high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and ultra high-performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC) to measure the amount of chemicals in a sample by creating charged aerosol particles which are detected using an electrometer.
