Integrating a consensus-reaching mechanism with bounded confidences into failure mode and effect analysis under incomplete context

作者：

Highlights：

• A bounded confidences-based optimization consensus-reaching model is proposed.

• A consensus-based FMEA framework with bounded confidences is built.

• FMEA members are allowed to offer opinions in an incomplete and uncertain manner.

• Two case studies and a comparison study are used to verify the validity of the proposal.
