First of all, what is a failure? It is a deterioration of a product or a material. Several reasons are possible to lead to this deterioration, such as a manufacturing problem, a customer return, the composition of the material…etc.
These reasons can have a negative impact on the material or the product:
A failure can materialize under multiple forms: breakage of parts, corrosion mechanism, adhesion defect, presence of pollution, wear of materials, premature aging… So many contexts which will initiate in the medical sector and more particularly in the medical devices, a need for expertise on the origin of this failure, then of research of solutions.
