Finds documents with all search terms. Blank space is understood as AND (e.g. man robot production).
Finds documents with no appearance of the word behind NOT (e.g. ford NOT "harrison ford").
Finds documents where the search term is mentioned at least "n" times."n" may be any number (e.g. COUNT(gear)>8).
Finds documents with both search terms in any word order, permitting "n" words as a maximum distance between them. Best choose between 15 and 30 (e.g. NEAR(recruit, professionals, 20)).

Abstract

Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA) is a widely used risk assessment approach for identification, quantification, and mitigation of potential failures in systems, products, processes, designs, and projects. Previous research efforts have focused on FMEA of Horizontal Axis Wind Turbines (HAWT)s, but there is a lack of application of FMEA for the failure analysis of Vertical Axis Wind Turbines (VAWT)s. This paper aims at the enhancement of reliability of VAWTs by applying system FMEA augmented with Fuzzy Logic (FL), and Dempster-Shafer (D-S) theory. A total of 12 probable failure modes have been identified, quantified and prioritized. The application of Fuzzy-FMEA and DS-FMEA approach based on three experts’ opinions accommodates the diversity of opinions and accounts for the uncertainty in decision making, due to any lack of knowledge and experience of the FMEA team.
