Cracking the Energy Puzzles of the 21st Century. By Stanley Reed November 25, 2013 10:00pm. An article from The New York Times. So the teams placed 750 sensors on the sea bottom for a close-up scan, then crunched the huge reams of data with a supercomputer. It was like putting on the right pair of glasses, said Steve Garrett, the head of Chevron’s European technology center in Aberdeen, Scotland. Expect the unexpected, said Robert N. Stavins, the director of the environmental economics program at Har...

http://www.windengineering.eu/wind_power/root_cause.html

Root Cause Analysis in Wind Energy Engineering Projects. By Stavros Philip. Thomas June 27 , 2013 09:11pm. When is RCA necessary? The root cause analyst should answer a sequence of critical questions: What it happened, How it happened, Why it happened and How to eliminate it so it will not happen again. The very first step to identify the cause of the failure-incident, is the information availability from different sources. These could include:. Witness statements or interviews from the staff involved.
