Failures in VentureStar's technology demonstrator, the X-33, in particular with the composite LH2 ( liquid hydrogen ) tank, led to program cancellation as a federal undertaking on February, 2001.

Failures at the pouch end are safest, as they result in the band rebounding away from the user.

Failures can range from slight errors ( slight over or under extraction – too bitter or too weak ; or uneven extraction – some parts over-extracted, some parts under-extracted ) to significant errors ( undrinkably harsh or watery ) to complete failure ( espresso does not brew successfully, water sprays everywhere, etc.

Service life is different from a predicted life, or MTTF / MTBF ( Mean Time to Failure / Mean Time Between Failures )/ MFOP ( maintenance-free operating period ).

Failures are often found from external ' noise factors ' and from shared interfaces with other parts and / or systems.

No Lessons Learned from Failures of Implementing Sustainable Development.

Failures in this latter instance can occur with seemingly unimportant exposures from well sealed joints, and do so without warning and rapidly ( the component will split or fall apart ).

Failures may relate to release of minute metallic particles or metal ions from wear of the implants, causing pain and disability severe enough to require revision surgery in 1 – 3 % of patients.

Failures in the control system could theoretically cause a runaway vehicle, although this is no different from the throttle return spring snapping on a traditional mechanical throttle vehicle.

Failures range from sudden, catastrophic loss of airframe integrity ( explosive decompression ) to slow leaks or equipment malfunctions that allow cabin pressure to drop undetected to levels that can lead to unconsciousness or severe performance degradation of the aircrew.

Failures were mostly located in areas of poor soil conditions due to building over filled-in creeks or on sand and rubble mixes from the 1906 earthquake — all of which were saturated with water and prone to liquefaction.

Many members of the Ghilzai tribe, such as the Kharoti sub-tribe and particularly the Nasher clan were exiled from Loya Paktia ( Paktia, Paktika and Khost ) to Kunduz in the north by Amir Abdur Rahman Khan due to political reasons .< reF > Title The Wars of Afghanistan: Messianic Terrorism, Tribal Conflicts, and the Failures of Great Powers Peter Tomsen, PublicAffairs, 2011 </ ref >

The Failures In Time ( FIT ) rate of a device is the number of failures that can be expected in one billion ( 10 < sup > 9 </ sup >) device-hours of operation.

While they may have been considered the Second worst operating revenue service car during the 1980s based on MDBF ( Mean Distance Between Failures ), doing better than the R46 based on MDBF, many R10s outlasted the newer R16s as well as a number of R27s and R30s.

This point is brought up in a profile of HPHS alum Stephen Glass in Handbook of Frauds, Scams, and Swindles: Failures of Ethics in Leadership, in which Lawrence-Lightfoot's profile of the school is summed up as: ( Lawrence-Lightfoot ) was impressed with the school's stunning academic programs, but noted that values such as character and morality were sometimes little more than brushstrokes against the relentlessness of achievement.

Two main criteria analyzed were Mean Rounds Between Stoppages ( MRBS, jams that can be cleared within minutes ) and Mean Rounds Between Failures ( MRBF, such as a part breaking ).

In his second book, The Return of Heroic Failures, Stephen Pile reports that Taiwanese pirates were not aware of this and did not include the erratum slip.

Later, they were picked up by Metal Blade Records and released the three succeeding albums through them: Here in After, Failures for Gods, and Close to a World Below.

Failures in treatment were put down to the patient's lack of a " good previous personality ".

The Book of Heroic Failures, written by Stephen Pile in 1979, is a book written in celebration of human inadequacy in all its forms.

Dramatic Failures are now only possible on " chance " die rolls ; when a dice pool is reduced by penalties to zero or less, a single chance die is rolled.

On a chance die, if the roll is a 1, then it is a Dramatic Failure, which is usually worse than a normal failure of the action, and is regulated by the Storyteller ( although examples of Dramatic Failures in certain situations are occasionally given ).

A third volume, " The Ultimate Book of Heroic Failures " was published by Faber and Faber in 2011.

Failures in several vehicles owned by GM and one external user led it to discover that using regular fuel and driving hard could cause possible internal engine damages including connecting rod failures.

Failures in other systems are usually produced by aging of the component ( such as a stretched belt ), or stress.

Reliability can be increased here by using a 2oo2 ( 2 out of 2 ) redundancy on part or system level, but this does in turn lower the safety levels ( more possibilities for Wrong Side and undetected dangerous Failures ).

Failures identified by Rowley may have left the U. S. vulnerable to the September 11, 2001, attacks.

For example, the Cognitive Failures Questionnaire created by Broadbent et al.

It sets out to achieve these goals by Gap Analysis of previous historical records of Product Defects, Equipment Failures and Accidents.

Failures can be quickly diagnosed by it.

In the satirical magazine Private Eye, the column on railway issues, " Signal Failures ", is written under the pseudonym " Dr. B. Ching " as a reference to the report.

The report, " Management and Oversight Failures Caused Major Cost Overruns and Schedule Delays ," identified management problems for the overruns, and also criticized the program for failing to include a considerable amount of money dedicated to target fabrication in the budget, including it in operational costs instead of development.
