What is Failure Analysis and why is it Important?
Failure analysis is a multi-faceted, holistic approach to understanding why materials or products fail. It is a critical aspect of product development and system improvement which not only helps you learn from the past but helps prevent future failures.
While the root cause analysis and associated impacts of any failure are the primary goals, the results can also help you make changes in your processes or material selection to prevent future occurrences. Read our article to find out three reasons to perform failure analysis.
DTI teams provide expert failure analysis and reporting through a range of technical services, including stress analysis and material characterization, trace evidence analysis, forensic engineering, and more.
Key benefits of Failure Analysis Services with us
Gain insight into failures with our precision root cause identification: Our initial investigation involves an in-depth discovery phase, considering environmental factors contributing to failure, type of application, how long it’s been in service, and design characteristics. DTI's analysts apply diverse methods and tools for detailed inspection leading to root case determination.
Conquer complex non-metallic material challenges: Non-metallic material failure analysis presents a unique challenge. While the initial analysis process is the same, our labs use specialist fractographic interpretation and analytical testing, tailored to these types of materials. As there are so many different formulations and combinations of non-metallic materials, we often use intensive material identification programs to help pinpoint the origin and degradation of non-metals.
Ensure safety and compliance: We know that reliability and safety are paramount in your industry. Our failure analysis experts combine extensive global and national standards knowledge with years of experience, so you can feel confident in the accuracy and compliance of their solutions, no matter the industry you’re in.
Mitigate risks and navigate litigation challenges with our expert witness services: Our wide-ranging expert witness services deliver critical testimony or expertise in legal and insurance cases involving material, product, or component failures. Whether it’s compliance cases, patent infringements, or detecting evidence of abuse or defects, we provide comprehensive support.
Specialists in the Oil & Gas Industry: For the Oil & Gas sector, our experts specialize in analyzing pipelines, drilling equipment, pumps, valves, and seals. We acknowledge the criticality of key asset failures, providing detailed insights, recommendations, and potential litigation support.
