Primes

• Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA)
  • A common failure is underestimating occurrence because the team is overconfident in the design or unfamiliar with the operational environment

    This sourceReplaces crisp RPN with a fuzzy-rule-based combination of severity, occurrence, and detectability, motivated by the well-known weaknesses of multiplicative RPN (identical RPNs from very different S/O/D profiles; difficulty estimating occurrence). NOTE: the prime's title omits 'in a system' — the published title is '...failures in a system failure mode, effects and criticality analysis.'

Verification

Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.

Does it back the claim? Not recorded. The single citation of this work carries no recorded support check.

Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
