fault analysis
1Differential fault analysis — is a type of side channel attack in the field of cryptography, specifically cryptanalysis. The principle is to induce faults unexpected environmental conditions into cryptographic implementations, to reveal their internal states. For example, a… …
2Fault tree analysis — (FTA) is a failure analysis in which an undesired state of a system is analyzed using boolean logic to combine a series of lower level events. This analysis method is mainly used in the field of safety engineering to quantitatively determine the… …
3Fault injection — In software testing, fault injection is a technique for improving the coverage of a test by introducing faults in order to test code paths, in particular error handling code paths, that might otherwise rarely be followed. It is often used with… …
4Hayward Fault Zone — The Hayward Fault Zone is a geologic fault zone capable of generating significantly destructive earthquakes. About 60 kilometers long, it lies mainly along the western base of the hills on the east side of San Francisco Bay. It runs through… …
5Dissolved gas analysis — or DGA is the study of dissolved gases in insulating fluid. [1] Insulating materials within transformers and related equipment break down to liberate gases within the unit. The distribution of these gases can be related to the type of electrical… …
6Failure analysis — is the process of collecting and analyzing data to determine the cause of a failure. It is an important discipline in many branches of manufacturing industry, such as the electronics industry, where it is a vital tool used in the development of… …
7Semiconductor fault diagnostics — are predictive software algorithms which are used to refine and localize the circuitry responsible for the failure of scan based devices. [cite conference| last=Crowell| first=G| coauthors=Press, R.| title=Using Scan Based Techniques for Fault… …
8Apollo Root Cause Analysis — The primary purpose of root cause analysis is to identify the causes of undesirable events such that they do not happen again. Apollo root cause analysis can also be used to identify the causal relationships of desirable events such that they can …
9Asymmetric fault — In power engineering, specifically three phase power, an asymmetric or unbalanced fault is a fault which does not affect each of the three phases equally. This is in contrast to a symmetric fault, where each of the phases is affected equally. In… …
10Root cause analysis — (RCA) is a class of problem solving methods aimed at identifying the root causes of problems or events. Root Cause Analysis is any structured approach to identifying the factors that resulted in the nature, the magnitude, the location, and the… …
