1 6/16/2008 An Brief Introduction to: Unique Isolation of Failures, or “FUI” DSI International, Inc. April, 2015

2 Fault Detection & Isolation in eXpress © 2015 DSI International Beginning with a system that has a 97% Fault Detection… … and 92% Fault Isolation to a group of one item …

3 Fault Detection in STAGE Detected Failures Non-Detected Failures © 2015 DSI International Fault Detection (over time) looks good so far …

4 Fault Isolation in STAGE Isolation to a Single LRU Isolation to Multiple LRUs © 2015 DSI International Fault Isolation (over time) looks good so far …

5 System/Mission Aborts in STAGE False System/Mission Aborts True System/Mission Aborts … Then why are the False System Aborts, “fSA” (over time) so frequent ? …

6 Item AItem B Ambiguous Isolation (Multiple Items) FM-1 FM-2 FM-1 FM-2 Item A Item B Unambiguous Isolation (Single Item) FM-1 FM-2 FM-1 FM-2 Item AItem B Unique Isolation (Root Cause(s) of Single Failure) FM-1 FM-2 FM-1 FM-2 Unambiguous vs. Unique Isolation © 2015 DSI International … The Fault Isolation was 97% to 1 item… But the fSA’s were still unacceptable … … Fault Isolation between the unique failures on the items remains unassessed Failures Uniquely Isolated, “FUI” could have different severities… Causing… Different corrective actions and obfuscates sustainment decision-making

7 The “Uniquely Isolated” column indicates whether the fault group that is isolated for this failure contains only root causes of the given failure. If the fault group contains any failure modes that are not a root cause of that failure, then the failure has not been uniquely isolated by the diagnostics. The non-unique isolation of critical failures is a primary driver of false alarms and unnecessary system or mission aborts. FMECA Plus: Critical Failure Diagnosis Chart © 2015 DSI International

9 False Alarms in STAGE Operational (True) Alarms Isolated Diagnostic Alarms Diagnostic False Alarms Non-Alarm Faults © 2015 DSI International … Does the occurrence of False Alarms, “FA” (over time) Appear to be acceptable ?
