Journal of Failure Analysis and Prevention<\/h3>

ASM International’s bimonthly Journal of Failure Analysis and Prevention<\/em> (JFAP)<\/em> provides practical information for determining the cause of failures and eliminating future failures. Peer-reviewed articles demonstrate the importance of failure analysis for product and performance improvement and industrial problem solving<\/strong>.<\/p>

Written for failure analysis practitioners with a range of experience, the Journal of Failure Analysis and Prevention<\/em> highlights information-gathering techniques, technical analysis, and emerging tools to assist in knowledge and skill development.<\/p>

The journal focuses on areas of failure analysis common to all industries, including failure analysis techniques, tests to prevent failures, cross-functional case histories, new equipment and processes, education and training information, field evaluation and sampling, lab reports, forensics, and reviews of classic failures.<\/p>

Published by Springer. The Journal of Failure Analysis and Prevention<\/em> is available online via Springer.com<\/a>.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t
