Fault Tree Analysis (FTA)

Fault Tree Analysis (FTA) is a systematic, graphical method used to identify and evaluate the potential causes of system failures in product design and production processes. By constructing a fault tree, designers and engineers can visualize the relationships between various failure events and their contributing factors, facilitating a deeper understanding of risks and vulnerabilities. This proactive approach aids in enhancing product reliability and safety through informed decision-making and targeted improvements in innovation and research.
