Ensuring quality in engineering is a very important criterion for judging the efficiency of theoperation. The Ishakawa fishbone diagram is a useful tool for performing an analysis of a fault ordiagnosing poor quality. Identify a simple engineering problem of your choice and use the Ishakawafishbone diagram, to identify the immediate and remote causes of this problem.
Nondestructive evaluation: Nondestructive evaluation (NDE) describes methodsthat quantitatively characterize materials, tissues, and structures by noninvasivemeans such as X-ray computed tomography, ultrasonics, and acoustic emission.Recently, NDE was used to detect defects in steel castings. (JOM, May 2005.)Assume that the probability that NDE detects a “hit” (i.e., predicts a defect in a steelcasting) when, in fact, a defect exists is .97. (This is often called the probability ofdetection.) Also assume that the probability that NDE detects a “hit” when, in fact,no defect exists is .005. (This is called the probability of a false call.) Past experiencehas shown that a defect occurs once in every 100 steel castings. If NDE detects a“hit” for a particular steel casting, what is the probability that an actual defectexists? Step by Step Full procedure required.
