Dynamic Criticality Analysis of Industrial Assets and System
… to identify their “critical” assets. Criticality analysis, a well-recognised method for providing a systematic basis for deciding what assets should have priority within a maintenance management process, is used for this purpose. Evidence from industrial practices reveals that although …

Optimization of an Emergency Response Vehicle's Intra-Link Movement in Urban Transportation Networks Utilizing a Connected Vehicle Environment
… (1) an ERV route generation module, (2) a criticality analysis module and (2) the sequential optimization module. The first module determines the ERV's route (set of links) from the ERV's origin to the desired destination in the network. Based on this selected route, the criticality …

A systems theoretic application to design for the safety of medical diagnostic devices
… Accident Model and Process (STAMP) and Causal Analysis based on STAMP (CAST) was more effective than the traditional, linear chain-of-events model of Failure Mode Effects and Criticality Analysis (FMECA). The CAST technique was applied to a medical case accident involving a complex diagnostic …
