Abstract:
Since the Great Recession of 2007–09, states have devoted even less money to public education and state courts have become even more hostile to structural reform litigation that has sought to challenge education funding and quality. Yet the current model of education federalism (dual federalism) leaves these matters largely to the states. As a result, state-level legislative inaction, executive acquiescence, and judicial abdication can combine to create a situation in which the quality of traditional public schools declines sharply. This is the case in Michigan, which is an unusually important state not only because the dynamics that are emerging in some other states are mature in Michigan but also because Michigan is the home state of Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos, who has influenced the state’s education policy substantially. Glaring gaps in educational quality like those in Michigan are not the federal government’s problem, and in some ways the federal government’s hands are tied when it comes to being part of the solution. This must change. Dual federalism does not reflect the current reality of many federal-state-local relationships, and it is sorely outdated in the context of public education. Accordingly, I argue for a larger, though by no means exclusive, federal role in K-12 public education with the goal of establishing a floor of educational quality for students across the country. In addition to proposing legislative and agency-based changes, I advance the novel litigation strategy of pairing a minimal educational quality right via Substantive Due Process with rational basis with bite review under the Equal Protection Clause. In these ways and others, we must move to a new model of federalism in education—cooperative federalism. Without this shift, a floor of educational quality will continue to be uneven both among and within states, and in more and more places like Michigan, the floor will rot and students will fall through.

Abstract:
Abstract This study presents a wind turbine reliability analysis at the turbine and assembly level. It is concerned with the uncertainties associated with data-processing for wind turbine failure rate figures. These uncertainties are prominent in discussions of failure data in the literature. In particular, the influence of different failure definitions on failure rate estimates are investigated. The baseline estimate is 9.06 failures per turbine per year. This figure changes significantly when introducing a lower downtime limit, repair limit or limit on time between subsequent downtimes of the same turbine for a downtime event to be considered a failure. It changes significantly depending on which maintenance actions are categorised as corrective and by what data points represent an intervention. From the one dataset analysed here, results show derived failure rates ranging from below 1 failures per turbine per year to over 10 failures per turbine per year using failure definitions which have previously been used in the literature. When restricting failures to those that can be attributed to a particular assembly, the failure rate estimate reduces to 7.47 failures per turbine per year. Assemblies that fail the most are the frequency converter (at around 1 failures per turbine per year) and the cooling system (at around 0.9 failure per turbine per year). The gearbox, blades, yaw system and hydraulic group were the next most frequently failing assemblies.

Abstract:
Disaster, loss, and failure preoccupy the minds of many digital preservation professionals, and yet, despite the prominence of digital disaster planning guidelines which seem to anticipate failure, there is limited discussion of experience with preservation system or network failures, which are often framed as inevitable in digital preservation. Despite this framing, negative perceptions of failure influence the digital preservation discourse by associating failure with poor planning, unreliability, and untrustworthiness on the part of institutions. This article will interrogate the issue of failure within the digital preservation field and consider the need for more conversations around network failure and recovery. The authors will argue that failure is part of the process of digital preservation and more honest conversations around this topic will contribute to the practice of openness and transparency within the digital preservation community. To illustrate these issues, the authors will discuss the actual hardware failures experienced by the MetaArchive Cooperative, a community-based distributed digital preservation network, and how the Cooperative’s utilization of the LOCKSS software allowed it to recover from those failures. Additionally, the lessons learned and resulting changes the Cooperative made to technical infrastructure, hardware diversity, policies and procedures will be shared.

Abstract:
Relationship between bushing failure and transformer failure is discussed and, in regard of that, two bushing failure types are recognized: incipient bushing failure that does not result in transformer damage and terminal bushing failure having transformer failure as a consequence. It can be seen, that without applying the diagnostics, all bushing failures are terminal. Thirteen bushing failures have been analyzed regarding their cause, failure mechanism and consequences. In that sense, the ability and limitation of off line and on line diagnostics are discussed and some improvements are proposed. Some switchyard properties in the aspect of fire protection are indicated and, especially, the possible influence of rigid tubular connections on bushing failures. Beside mentioned design, service, condition diagnostics and other properties of all three condenser types of bushings are described in the paper.

Abstract:
The Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA) method has been widely recognized as a tool that systematically identifies the consequences and failures of the system or process, and reduces or eliminates the chances of the failure. This study applies that method to evaluate the causes of failure in the use of sugarcane machine that have been designed in the previous studies. FMEA approach anticipated the failures at the design stage, so that a more reliable and ergonomic design can be produced for future sugarcane machine. The potential failure identified from the machine consists of capacity issues, machine maintenance, preliminary treatment, and procedures of use. The study found that capacity issues are the priority problems that cause the machine failure. Then, this study proposed some actions to reduce the risk priority number (RPN) on 12 failures.

Abstract:
We examine the learning effects of borrowers’ failures in online lending. Based on funding ratios of borrowers’ loan listings in online lending, we first explore the role of failure degree in borrowers’ future funding performance. Further, we disaggregate borrowers’ funding failure into complete failure and incomplete failure, and compare theirs learning effects. Using a large sample of 610,000 online loan applications over six years from a Chinese leading online lending platform Renrendai, we use funding ratio to quantifiably measure each loan listing’s failure degree and conduct a series of tests. The results show that: (1) Borrowers’ failure degree of prior loan applications is negatively associated with one’s subsequent funding performance. (2) Borrowers’ complete failure cannot promote learning, while incomplete failure is good for future performance. (3) Both incomplete failure and complete failure interacted to influence the value of each type of experience and generate improved learning. Our results are robust across a variety of settings. The study sheds light for deeply understanding of failure learning phenomenon, and can also provide important implications for online lending managers to support successful financial transactions.

Abstract:
This paper is part of a research theme to develop methods that enhance risk assessment studies by the use of ‘automated’ failure analysis. The paper presents an approach to mechanical failure analysis and introduces a mechanical failure analysis module that can be used in a virtual reality (VR) environment. The module is used to analyse and predict failures in mechanical assemblies; it considers stress related failures within components, as well as failures due to component interactions. Mechanical failures are divided into two categories in this paper: material failures and interference failures. The former occur in components and the latter happen at the interface between components. Individual component failures can be analysed readily; a contribution of the mechanical failure analysis module is to predict interference failures. A mechanical failure analysis system that analyses and visualizes mechanical failures in a virtual environment has been developed. Two case studies demonstrate how the system carries out failure analysis and visualization as design parameters are changed.

Full text
Abstract:
Hospital administrators strive to reduce readmission and over use of the acute care setting for chronic health conditions. Historically hospitals have focused on readmission prevention strategies to improve the transition of patients from the hospital to the community and although the causes of a hospital readmission may span multiple providers along the continuum of care, the hospital is currently the only provider being penalized. The project facility implemented a readmission reduction strategy, Re-Engineered Discharge (Project RED), as a means to reduce readmissions and yet continued to have high readmission rates for heart failure (HF) patients. The continued high rate of readmissions led to the practice focused question, which examined the process of developing a discharge phone call script specific for HF patients as a way to reduce readmissions for HF patients. Kristin Swanson's structure of caring model provided the nursing framework for this project with a purpose to plan a telephone call follow up program for HF patients after hospital discharge. The project planning was accomplished in conjunction with the facility's readmission reduction team/LEAN team, resulting in a script about the most prevalent issues among HF patients. Kotter's 8 step change model will be used as a guide for the implementation of the telephone call follow up program at a later date. Readmission rates for HF patients will be monitored monthly as an outcome evaluation measure. Project team members provided evaluation of the project which demonstrated satisfaction and success of the planning process. The results of this project will bring about social change by providing access to healthcare providers regardless the socioeconomic status of the patient and by decreasing the use of acute care setting unnecessarily for chronic conditions.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis aims to give an understanding of what is behind a failure in a startup industry. To understand why failures are needed for a success, the serial entrepreneur process has to be clarified at an individual level. In the failure process, under analysis are the main phases of turning a failure into a success and the outcomes which should be used as the next venture foundations. This study also aims to give basic tools for entrepreneurships on how to proceed after a failure at a personal level so that the entrepreneurs would be able start a new venture having a positive experience from the last failure. The study begins with a literature review in which concepts of entrepreneurial learning and theoretical failure process model are presented. This created model is then tested in the empirical part. The method used in this study is done as an abductive approach using exploratory research design with a cross-sectional study method to collect and analyze qualitative data. The data in the empirical part has been collected with face-to-face and telephone interviews with professional serial entrepreneurs. The theoretical failure process model created in the literature review part was successfully tested in the empirical part. This process model could be used as the first step in any failure analyses as a tool for an entrepreneur or a manager. Going forward is much easier after analyzing the true reasons behind a failure. Finding root causes for a failure has provided learnings which are key tools for the future. The scientific results of this study show that every entrepreneur that was interviewed has had multiple setbacks as failures during their career. However, they have managed to separate their professional and private lives so that if and when a failure has happened, financial, social and physical costs have been less significant. When these negative costs have been minimal ones, the entrepreneurs have had no or only minor grief before being able to analyze true reasons behind a failure and gaining learnings for the next venture. Learning from past failures, they have been able to avoid similar mistakes happening again. Furthermore, low grief has allowed for the recovery time from failures to reduce significantly. The main managerial finding was that internal motivation is one of the root causes behind the entrepreneur having strength and motivation to continue despite failures. The internal motivation for their actions follows every step from starting a venture to failure analyses, all the way to learning and continuing to the next venture. In some cases, when that motivation was lost, even partly, entrepreneurs were noted to exit from that venture. The purpose of this study was to give understanding of why a failure should be accepted as a natural and sometimes needed, but not wanted, step for learning in a long perspective. The purpose was not to give detailed tools for every reasons behind failure, but this work will rather provide basic tools on how to proceed if a failure happens. If the failure acceptance was wider, the outcome would be beneficial on three different levels. To understand the reasons behind needing failures for success, we need to focus on the entrepreneur’s failure process at an individual level. After understanding that, the process can be scaled up to company and further to community levels.

Shen, Li. "Sudden death and pump failure death in heart failure." Thesis, University of Glasgow, 2018. http://theses.gla.ac.uk/8651/.

Full text
Abstract:
Sudden death and pump failure death are two major modes of death in patients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction (HF-REF) and in patients with heart failure and preserved ejection fraction (HF-PEF). There have been advances in evidence-based treatments in patients with HF-REF over the last two decades, along with the changing patient characteristics in both HF-REF and HF-PEF populations. It is of great interest and significance to discover if these changes have translated into temporal changes (and corresponding trends over time) in the risks of sudden death and pump failure death in both populations. Apart from examining any changes in the rates of mode-specific death in population level, it is also of interest and importance to estimate the risks for sudden death and pump failure death in individual patients. Accurate risk prediction can aid in better risk stratification. In patients with HF-REF, identifying high-risk subgroups would help target the device therapy to those most likely to benefit and identifying low-risk subgroups would avoid unnecessary implantation, thus improving the cost-effectiveness of the therapy. In patients with HF-PEF, identifying high-risk subgroups would enable further research into the efficacy of device therapy in this population. The aims of this work were to examine the trends in the rates of sudden death and pump failure death over time in patients with HF-REF and in patients with HF-PEF, and to separately develop validated models to predict sudden death and pump failure death in both populations. Given that there are limited data on mode-specific death from community-based studies, I used data from clinical trials which have more detailed and standardised sub-classification and adjudication of mortal events. Besides, compared to community-based studies, clinical trials have more detailed baseline characterisation, which allows more complete multivariable adjustment to account for confounding and between-study differences. Therefore, a cohort of 46,163 patients with HF-REF enrolled in 13 clinical trials conducted between 1995-2015 and a cohort of 10,517 patients with HF-PEF in 3 clinical trials over the period 1999-2013 were included in this thesis. Multiple linear regression analysis was used to examine the trends in the rates of sudden death and pump failure death over time in both populations respectively. The cumulative incidences for sudden death and pump failure death in each trial at different time points during follow-up were calculated with the cumulative incidence function method, counting the competing risk of death from other causes. The risk for each mode of death across trial arms and by HF duration was examined using the Cox regression models, with further adjustment for a number of confounding variables. The models to predict sudden death and pump failure death in patients with HF-REF were separately developed in PARADIGM-HF and validated in ATMOSPHERE. Models for both modes of death in HF-PEF were developed in I-PRESERVE and validated in CHARM-Preserved as well as TOPCAT. These models were constructed using a competing risk approach with the Fine-Gray sub-distributional hazards regression analysis. Model performance was examined by assessing calibration (i.e. the agreement between the observed and predicted cumulative incidences over time) and discrimination (i.e. the ability to separate patients at higher risk from those at lower risk). I found that the risks of sudden death and pump failure death in patients with HF-REF have fallen across 13 clinical trials over the period 1995-2015, consistent with a cumulative use of evidence-based therapies in this population. The absolute rates of sudden death and pump failure death were very low in the early follow-up after randomisation in patients with HF-REF who received modern evidence-based treatment. Longer standing HF was associated with greater risks of sudden death and, particularly, pump failure death in HF-REF. The risks of sudden death and pump failure death were consistently low across the 3 largest clinical trials in patients with HF-PEF, with little difference by experimental treatment in any trial. There was a downward trend in the rates of sudden death and pump failure death across these trials over time, in parallel with a changing characteristic of patients enrolled in these trials. Nevertheless, sudden death and pump failure death remained the most common modes of death, altogether accounting for the majority of CV death. The absolute rates of sudden death and pump failure death in patients with HF-PEF were extremely low in the early follow-up after randomisation. Longer standing HF was associated with a slightly higher risk of sudden death and a substantially higher risk of pump failure death in HF-PEF. The sudden death and pump failure death models in patients with HF-REF I developed in the largest and most contemporary cohort (PARADIGM-HF), included a number of variables collected in routine clinical practice, and accounted for the prognostic impact of the competing risk of death from other causes. The discriminating ability was modest for the sudden death model but excellent for the pump failure death model. Both models showed good calibration and were robust when externally validated in ATMOSPHERE. The prognostic models in patients with HF-PEF I developed in I-PRESERVE, using simple demographic and clinical variables, showed good discrimination and calibration for both sudden death and pump failure death, and were robust in external validation in CHARM-Preserved and TOPCAT. The performance of both models was further improved with the inclusion of NT-proBNP. In conclusion, I have found that the risks of sudden death and pump failure death have declined over time both in patients with HF-REF and in patients with HF-PEF based on clinical trial data. The patterns of change in the rates of both modes of death over time need to be examined in community-based populations. The prognostic models for both modes of death, showing reasonable performance, can be considered for use in risk stratification for mode-specific death in both populations, aiding in decision making in device therapy in similar patients in HF-REF and helping with patient selection for device interventions in future trials in HF-PEF.

Abstract:
Wood as building material is gaining more and more attention in the 21st century due to its positive attributes such as light weight, renewability, low carbon footprint and fast construction period. Cross-laminated timber (CLT), as one of the new engineered wood products, requires more research emphasis since its mechanical performance can allow CLT to be utilized in massive timber structures. This thesis focuses on revealing one of the key failure mechanisms of CLT, which is usually referred to as the rolling shear failure. The scientific research conducted in this thesis combined both analytical modelling and experimental material testing. The stresses in CLT cross-layers obtained from a finite-element model were analyzed to differentiate various failure modes possible. Tension perpendicular to grain stress was found to cause cross-layer failure in combined with the rolling shear stress. Experimentally, specimens prepared from 5-layer CLT panels were tested under center-point bending condition. Detailed failure mechanism of CLT cross-layers were recorded with high speed camera to capture the instant when initial failure happened. It is evident that some of the specimens failed in tension perpendicular to grain which verified the modelling results. Variables such as the rate of loading and the manufacturing clamping pressure were designed in experiments to compare their influence to the failure of CLT specimens. In this research, the failure of CLT cross-layer was updated to a combined consequence of both rolling shear stress and tension perpendicular to grain stress. Future research topics and product improvement potentials were given by the end of this thesis.

Abstract:
The objective of this master thesis was to investigate if there is a relationship between geometrical quality failure cost and geometrical deviation from the designed target value. To achieve this objective this master thesis has defined what is referred to as geometrical quality failure and geometrical quality failure cost. Furthermore, to make it applicable for organizations this master thesis also has investigated how a potential relationship could be used. This master thesis was performed as a case study at the Swedish car manufacturer Volvo Cars Corporation, VCC. The case study included both a qualitative and a quantitative part. There were three main quantitative parts: questionnaires, a cost analysis and a geometrical analysis. The questionnaires were sent to recipients both within the VCC organization, also to external organizations and experts within the field of geometry assurance and geometrical quality. The responses from the questionnaires were used to define geometrical quality failure and geometrical quality failure cost. The cost analysis and the geometrical analysis were done with four samples, and investigated if there was a relationship between the defined geometrical quality failure costs and deviation from the designed target value. The qualitative part of the case study was used to find costs that were related to geometry within the VCC organization, and also to investigate how a possible relationship could be used in organizations. For the qualitative part, interviews were conducted both with individuals from VCC and external organizations. This master thesis showed that there was a relationship between the defined geometrical quality failure cost and geometrical deviation from the designed target for the investigated samples. It also argued that the relationship could be used as a communication tool within organizations. The relationship could also be used in negotiations to communicate that a more robust design, a supplier that delivers robust components, or a better assembly system could be cheaper from a long-term perspective. Furthermore, the relationship could also be used to communicate the importance of working with develop more robust designs. Keywords – Geometrical quality failure, Geometrical quality failure cost, Quality, Geometrical variation, Cost, Taguchi, and Quality loss function.
Syftet med detta examensarbete var att undersöka om det finns ett samband mellan geometrisk kvalitetsbristkostnad och geometrisk avvikelse från det designade målvärdet. För att uppnå syftet har detta examensarbete definierat vad som kallas geometrisk kvalitetsbrist och geometrisk kvalitetsbristkostnad. Dessutom, för att göra relationen applicerbar för organisationer har detta examensarbete också undersökt hur den potentiella relationen skulle kunna användas. Examensarbetet utfördes som en fallstudie hos den svenska biltillverkaren Volvo Personvagnar AB, även benämnda som VCC i examensarbetet. I fallstudien ingick både en kvalitativ och en kvantitativ del. Det fanns tre huvudsakliga kvantitativa delar, vilka var; frågeformulär, en kostnadsanalys och en geometrisk analys. Frågeformulären skickades ut till mottagare både inom VCC och även till externa organisationer och experter inom områdena geometrisäkring och geometrisk kvalitet. Svaren från enkäterna användes för att definiera geometrisk kvalitetsbrist och geometrisk kvalitetsbristkostnad. Kostnadsanalysen och den geometriska analysen utfördes på fyra fall hämtade från VCC, och undersökte om det fanns ett samband mellan den definierade geometriska kvalitetsbristkostnaden och avvikelser från det designade målvärdet. Den kvalitativa delen av fallstudien användes för att hitta kostnader som var relaterade till geometriska defekter inom VCC samt även för att undersöka hur ett eventuellt samband kan användas i organisationer. För den kvalitativa delen har intervjuer genomförts både med personer inom VCC och externa organisationer. Detta examensarbete visade att det fanns ett samband mellan den definierade geometriska kvalitetsbristkostnaden och geometrisk avvikelse från det designade målvärdet för de undersökta fallen. Det hävdades även att detta samband skulle kunna användas som ett kommunikationsmedel inom organisationer. Sambandet kan även användas i förhandlingar för att kommunicera att en mer robust konstruktion, leverantör som levererar robusta komponenter, eller bättre monteringssystem kan vara billigare ur ett långsiktigt perspektiv. Vidare kan sambandet även användas för att kommunicera vikten av att arbeta med att utveckla mer robusta konstruktioner. Nyckelord – Geometrisk kvalitetsbrist, Geometrisk kvalitetsbristkostnad, Kvalitet, Geometrisk variation, Kostnad, Taguchi, och Quality Loss Function.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract Failure analysis for Static Random Access Memory (SRAM) is the major activity in any microelectronic failure analysis lab. Originating from SRAM array structure, SRAM failure can be simple as single bit, paired bit or quad bit failures, whose defect is located at the failure location, or complicated as logic type failure involving WL or BL patterns or entire blocks, whose defect is often not at the failure location. For such SRAM logic type failures, failure analysis is more challenging and detailed fault isolation is necessary prior to physical failure analysis. This paper has demonstrated how to use SRAM decoder scheme knowledge, detailed layout tracing and Photon Emission Microscope (PEM) analysis to deal with the challenges and find the root causes for several cases of SRAM logic type failures.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract The 2-bit/cell nitride-trapping device (NROM/Nbit) is an important type of NVM (Non-Volatile Memory). The NROM/Nbit is a potential candidate for replacing FG-type NVM devices below the 45nm node. In this study, electrical and physical failure analyses (PFA) were used. The failure mechanisms and root causes of failure for the test vehicle, a 130nm NBit device, were determined. Because cell dimensions and spacing requirements for high-density memory are quite aggressive, these observations help to optimize process and improve yield.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract Main Steam Stop and Control Valves (MSCVs) are safety critical components in modern steam power plants including large, combined cycle gas turbine (CCGT) plants. Repeated failures of the after seat drain piping at a dissimilar metal weld have occurred at one large CCGT that is regulated by the ISO in AGC and therefore experiences few startups. This paper describes the results from a comprehensive evaluation of contributors to the repeated failures in one of two MSCV including: pipe stress analysis of the drain pipe layout, vibration testing of the MSCV and drain piping system using accelerometers and motion amplified video (MAV) technology and other inspections of the large bore pipe hanger system adjacent to the valves. Forensic investigations by a metallographic laboratory were conducted which provide important conclusions about the root cause of the drain weld failures, material condition and heat treatment procedures. Additional calculations of transient thermal stress were also conducted in accordance with the guidance that is available in ASME Code Section III NB-3650 to address additional stress that is present due to transient temperature conditions at the failed DMW weld where a substantial geometric discontinuity is present between the drain pipe and the downstream forged block valve. Results from plant operating data archives were used to establish process conditions during plant startup and indexing the measured vibration characteristics when the MSCV drains opened and closed. Field NDT (PMI, UT thickness testing) and hardness testing was used to confirm the material in the drain lines components which have not experienced failures. Recommendations were developed from this program that identify the principal cause of the high level of vibration in the affected MSCV, the benefits of modifications to the drain system pipe materials, dimension and layout and the improvement of oversight of heat treatment of future repairs.

Abstract:
Water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) failures continue to be discussed mostly off the record, with professionals the world over repeating one another’s mistakes. Failure is difficult to talk about, but WASH failures have negative impacts – money is wasted and sometimes people are harmed. We need to acknowledge that not everything we try will succeed, but that if we learn from one another, we can continuously improve our work. Since 2018, we have attempted to foster this change through the ‘WASH Failures Movement’. This issue of 'Frontiers of Sanitation' is a compilation of what we’ve learned about why WASH failures happen, how we can address them, and how we can facilitate a culture of sharing and learning from failure in the WASH sector.

Leis and Mohan. L51803 Failure Criterion for Stress-Corrosion Cracking in Pipelines. Chantilly, Virginia: Pipeline Research Council International, Inc. (PRCI), September 1995. http://dx.doi.org/10.55274/r0010327.

Full text
Abstract:
Failures due to stress-corrosion cracking (SCC) generally involve several adjacent, parallel, deep cracks that because of their proximity coalesce to form long flaws, which can cause ruptures.Recent studies indicate that such multiple flaws cause a local increase in compliance as compared to a single crack that represents the largest of the cracks involved.This means that the failure pressure for such a group of cracks can be poorly represented by a single flaw failure criterion, such as the Pipe Axial Flaw Failure Criterion (PAFFC) developed for the Pipeline Research Council International, Inc. The objective of this project was to develop a failure criterion for the multiple flaw situations typical of SCC based on available literature data for a repeating pattern of cracks (a regular array of cracks). This report begins with a discussion of predicted failure pressures for several typical field failures due to SCC. This discussion clearly demonstrates significant errors in predicted failure pressure for the multiple cracking typical of SCC when the failure pressure is predicted in terms of available single-flaw failure criteria for part-through-wall flaws in pipelines. This is followed by an analysis based on available literature data. It is shown that the literature data fail to represent the essential features of typical patches of cracks that control SCC failures. Analysis representing realistic cracking patterns is then introduced and used in conjunction with PAFFC to show that very accurate predictions can be made if the typical nature of the SCC patch is embedded in the failure criterion.
