Course Introduction: MADE Training

This front-matter section only appears in the combined "MADE Training 3.9.1 (FULL)" deck — it is not part of any of the six individual Session decks, which each open directly with their own Session content. It functions as the instructor's course-kickoff material for the full multi-session training course.

Prerequisites

Course Outline

The full course is structured as:

• Introduction: MADE Training
• Session 1: MADE Modeling
• Session 2: Failure Simulation
• Session 3: Safety Analyses
• Session 4: Reliability Analyses
• Session 5: Maintainability Analyses
• Session 6: PHM Analyses
• Conclusion: Using MADE

Discussion: What is MADE?

• MADE is a modeling tool that allows users to generate a variety of analyses across different engineering domains.
• The main objective in MADE is to create a suitable model of a platform/system that contains enough detail to achieve the analyses/outputs the user requires.
• MADE currently has four modules:
  • Modeling: System and Mission Modeling
  • SRA: Safety and Risk Assessment
  • RAM: Reliability, Availability and Maintainability
  • PHM: Prognostics and Health Management

Discussion: MADE Modules

What can be done in each module:

• Modeling: System and Mission Modeling — Functional Hazard Assessment, Functional system modeling, Mission Profile Definition, Dependency mapping
• SRA: Safety and Risk Assessment — Failure Mode Effects Analysis (FMEA), Control Measures, Common Mode Analysis (CMA), Critical Item Analysis, Fault Trees
• RAM: Reliability, Availability and Maintainability — Reliability Block Diagrams (RBD), Reliability Allocation, Reliability Centered Maintenance, Maintenance Cost Estimates, Markov Analysis, Failure Rate Prediction
• PHM: Prognostics and Health Management — Sensor set design, Diagnostic rule generation, Sensor Set trade study
