摘要：When a mechanical system fails, the most important thing is to find out the fault location and causes quickly and accurately. Based on the meta-action unit, this article proposes a comprehensive, qualitative, and quantitative fault diagnosis method composed of fault tree analysis and evidential network to analyze faults of the mechanical system. First, we expand the function–motion–action decomposition method, revise the definitions of meta-action and meta-action unit derived from the function–motion–action decomposition of the complex mechanical system, use the fault tree analysis approach to analyze the faults of the meta-action unit instead of the system directly, and establish the meta-action unit fault tree analysis (MU-FTA) model with simple levels. These activities can tremendously simplify the qualitative diagnostic model. Second, the MU-FTA model is mapped to the evidential network model according to their similarities. Finally, we fuse the after-sales data and expert experience information by De...
