Resumo: | Highlights: FTA is a reliability technique aimed at identifying all the combinations of causes that can give rise to an undesired event, studying the probability of these causes occurring, and prioritizing actions to prevent these causes from happening and resulting in the undesired event. The method allows the analysis of system reliability and the construction of the cause-and-effect relationship of its events, creating an interface with the FMEA tool. FMEA is a reliability tool used to find possible failures in a system and assess their possible consequences. These methods and techniques seek to improve the reliability of products or processes, i.e., increase the likelihood of an item performing its function flawlessly. Aim: This paper will analyze failures in the suspension system of an SAE competition off-road vehicle using fault mode and effect analysis (FMEA) and fault tree analysis (FTA) techniques with a view to improving the performance of these vehicles in future competitions. Design/Methodology/Approach: The researchers began by defining the suspension system as the object of study with the racing team, followed by collecting information and failure data on this system. The FMEA and FTA tools were then used alongside interviews with the racing team. Results: The analysis of the results showed that the two highest probabilities of failure are related to the suspension and the axle sleeve, with values of 38.8% and 20.5%, respectively, and that the rotary terminal is the most critical element. Research limitations: The limitations of this research include the subjectivity of assigning FMEA scores due to the team's lack of experience and the limited history of documenting data on vehicle failures related to the dynamics of SAE competitions. Practical implications: The practical implications of this study include the possibility of professional improvement for the engineering students belonging to the competition team. Originality/value: The literature search revealed that the research topic is original and challenging at the same time. Its results will allow us to re-evaluate the construction project for the Baja competition vehicle. Keywords: FMEA; FTA, Baja SAE Brazil Program; Suspension System. |

Aspectos destacados: FTA es una técnica de confiabilidad que tiene como objetivo identificar todas las combinaciones de causas que pueden dar lugar a un evento no deseado; estudiar la probabilidad de ocurrencia de estas causas y priorizar acciones que tengan como objetivo evitar que estas causas ocurran y resulten en el evento no deseado. El uso del método permite el análisis de la confiabilidad de los sistemas y también la construcción de la relación causa-efecto de sus eventos, creando una interfaz con la herramienta FMEA. FMEA es una herramienta de confiabilidad que se utiliza para encontrar posibles fallas en un sistema, además de permitir la evaluación de sus posibles consecuencias. Estos métodos y técnicas tienen como objetivo mejorar la fiabilidad de los productos o procesos, es decir, aumentar la probabilidad de que un artículo realice su función sin falta. Objetivo: analizar las fallas del sistema de suspensión de un vehículo todoterreno de competencia SAE utilizando las técnicas de análisis de modo y efecto de falla (FMEA) y árbol de fallas (FTA) para mejorar el desempeño de estos vehículos en competencias futuras. Diseño / Metodología / Enfoque: Se inició con la definición del sistema de suspensión como objeto de estudio por parte de los investigadores junto con el equipo de competencia, seguido de la recolección de información y datos de fallas de este sistema. Luego, las herramientas FMEA y FTA se utilizaron en paralelo con las entrevistas con el equipo de la competencia. Resultados: A través del análisis de los resultados se encontró que las dos mayores probabilidades de falla están relacionadas con la suspensión y el manguito del eje con valores de 38.8% y 20.5%, respectivamente, y que el terminal de rotulación es el elemento más crítico. . Limitaciones de la investigación: Las limitaciones de esta investigación son la subjetividad en la asignación de calificaciones del FMEA debido a la poca experiencia del equipo y al reducido historial de documentación de datos sobre fallas de vehículos relacionados con la dinámica de competencias SAE. Implicaciones prácticas: Como implicaciones prácticas de este estudio, se contempla la posibilidad de superación profesional de los estudiantes de ingeniería pertenecientes al equipo de competición. Originalidad / valor: En la búsqueda bibliográfica, se encontró que el tema de investigación es original y al mismo tiempo desafiante. Sus resultados permitirán reevaluar el proyecto constructivo del vehículo de competición Baja. Destaques: A FTA é uma técnica de confiabilidade que tem como objetivo identificar todas as combinações de causas que podem dar origem a um evento indesejado; estudar a probabilidade de ocorrência dessas causas e priorizar ações que visam impedir que essas causas ocorram e resultem no evento indesejado. A utilização do método possibilita a análise da confiabilidade de sistemas e também a construção da relação de causa−efeito de seus eventos, criando uma interface com a ferramenta FMEA. A FMEA é uma ferramenta de confiabilidade utilizada para encontrar possíveis falhas em um sistema, além de permitir a avaliação de suas possíveis consequências. Estes métodos e técnicas visam melhorar a confiabilidade de produtos ou processos, ou seja, aumentar a probabilidade de um item desempenhar sua função sem falhas. Objetivo: Analisar as falhas do sistema de suspensão de um veículo off-road de competição SAE utilizando as técnicas de análise do modo e efeito de falhas (FMEA) e de árvore de falhas (FTA), visando à melhoria da performance desses veículos em competições futuras. Desenho/Metodologia/Abordagem: Partiu-se pela definição do sistema de suspensão como objeto de estudo pelos pesquisadores junto à equipe de competição, seguido da coleta de informações e dados de falha deste sistema. Em seguida, foram utilizadas as ferramentas FMEA e FTA em paralelo a entrevistas realizadas com a equipe de competição. Resultados: Por meio da análise dos resultados constatou-se que as duas maiores probabilidades de falha estão relacionadas à suspensão e à manga do eixo com valores de 38,8% e 20,5%, respectivamente, e que o terminal rotular é o elemento mais crítico. Limitações da investigação: Ressalta-se como limitações desta pesquisa a subjetividade na atribuição de notas da FMEA devido à pouca experiência da equipe e ao reduzido histórico de documentação dos dados acerca de falhas do veículo relativas à dinâmica das competições da SAE. Implicações práticas: Como implicações práticas deste estudo vislumbra-se a possibilidade do aprimoramento profissional dos estudantes de engenharia pertencentes à equipe de competição. Originalidade/valor: Na busca na literatura verificou-se que o tema da pesquisa é original e, ao mesmo tempo, desafiador. Seus resultados permitirão reavaliar o projeto de construção do veículo Baja de competição.
