Prediction Of Foreign Object Debris/Damage (Fod) Type For Elimination In The Aeronautics Manufacturing Environment Through Logistic Regression Model, Natalia V. Espino
Prediction Of Foreign Object Debris/Damage (Fod) Type For Elimination In The Aeronautics Manufacturing Environment Through Logistic Regression Model, Natalia V. Espino
Open Access Theses & Dissertations
Foreign Object Debris/Damage (FOD) is a costly and high-risk problem that aeronautics industries such as Boeing, Lockheed Martin, among others are facing at their production lines every day. They spend an average of $350 thousand dollars per year fixing FOD problems. FOD can put pilots, passengers and other crews' lives into high-risk. FOD refers to any type of foreign object, particle, debris or agent in the manufacturing environment, which could contaminate/damage the product or otherwise undermine quality control standards. FOD can be in the form of any of the following categories: panstock, manufacturing debris, tools/shop aids, consumables and trash. Although …

Prediction Of Foreign Object Debris/Damage Fod Type Based In Human Factors For Aeronautics Using Logistic Regression Model, David Ricardo Romo
Open Access Theses & Dissertations
Foreign Object Debris/Damage (FOD) has been an issue for military and commercial aircraft manufacturers since the early ages of aviation and aerospace. Currently, aerospace is growing rapidly and the chances of FOD presence are growing as well. One of the principal causes in manufacturing is the human error. The cost associated with human error in commercial and military aircrafts is approximately accountable for 4 billion dollars per year. This problem is currently addressed with prevention programs, elimination techniques, and designation of FOD areas, controlled access, restrictions of personal items entering designated areas, tool accountability, and the use of technology such …
