On the Use of Fuzzy Inference Techniques in Assessment Models: Part II: Industrial Applications

In this paper, we study the applicability of the monotone output property and the output resolution property in fuzzy assessment models to two industrial Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA) problems. First, the effectiveness of the monotone output property in a single-input fuzzy assessment mode...
