Root Cause Analysis (RCA) has evolved from an ancient philosophical concept to a sophisticated, integral part of modern quality management, safety investigation, and problem-solving methodologies. It has been shaped by contributions from experts from various fields, including industrial engineering, quality management, and production processes, and continues to adapt to the needs of contemporary organisations in accordance with technological advancements.
RCA is an essential exercise for organisations and professionals aiming to improve problem-solving capabilities, enhance performance, and prevent recurring challenges and issues.
RCA plays a crucial role in the sphere of composite materials due to the complex nature of these materials and their critical applications in diverse industries such as aerospace, automotives, construction, and marine.
Composite materials are engineered from two or more constituent materials with significantly different physical or chemical properties. When combined, they produce a material with characteristics notably different from those of the individual components. The complexity of composites lies in their heterogeneous nature, the interaction among their constituents, and the manufacturing processes involved in their creation. These factors and characteristics make RCA an essential tool for maintaining quality, performance, and safety in different sectors.
