Niner / anyone who want to volunteer:
Need a bit of housekeeping done here.
We are at a point where we need a poster display (in physical terms, not online) of the information gathered:
But since we are all online, we have to do it here.
Roughly, in columns,
- Symptoms, diagnostics information, early warnings
- hypothesis, about failure modes (single vs. multiple)
- root cause / initial failure
- causal mechanisms
- cognate field (fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, simulation modeling, etc.)
- sources of knowledge (field reports, SAE docs, OEM docs, hiring specs, ...)
From this, a "most probable" leads is generated
Then this leads us to asking "how do we seek additional information"
Where to find failure cause evidence?
Where to find additional literature?
Where to find more?
Need this posted --- the best people to do it are not those doing the front line -- but a new person like biker.
Give us perspective.
