a failure

When a global failure occurs, the token fail is returned This occurs when no value can be inferred that satisfies any set of equality constraints In a specific subtask, a failure occurs when no value can be inferred that satisfies the current equality constraints --and causes backtracking at that point

failure

Load refusal, breakage, or separation of components

failure

If there is a failure of something, for example a machine or part of the body, it goes wrong and stops working or developing properly. There were also several accidents mainly caused by engine failures on take-off He was being treated for kidney failure

failure

If there is a failure of a business or bank, it is no longer able to continue operating. Business failures rose 16% last month. = collapse. anemia of bone marrow failure congestive heart failure heart failure kidney failure renal failure

failure

A failing; a slight fault

failure

Your failure to do a particular thing is the fact that you do not do it, even though you were expected to do it. their failure to get the product mix right

failure

an unexpected omission; "he resented my failure to return his call"; "the mechanic's failure to check the brakes" an act that fails; "his failure to pass the test" an event that does not accomplish its intended purpose; "the surprise party was a complete failure" a person with a record of failing; someone who loses consistently loss of ability to function normally; "kidney failure" lack of success; "he felt that his entire life had been a failure"; "that year there was a crop failure

failure

If something is a failure, it is not a success. The marriage was a failure and they both wanted to be free of it His six-year transition programme has by no means been a complete failure. success

failure

Failure is a lack of success in doing or achieving something, especially in relation to a particular activity. This policy is doomed to failure Three attempts on the British 200-metre record also ended in failure. feelings of failure. success

failure

A becoming insolvent; bankruptcy; suspension of payment; as, failure in business

failure

loss of ability to function normally; "kidney failure"

failure

an event that does not accomplish its intended purpose; "the surprise party was a complete failure"

failure

Deviation of the software from its expected delivery or service [4] (after Fenton)

failure

If you say that someone is a failure, you mean that they have not succeeded in a particular activity, or that they are unsuccessful at everything they do. Elgar received many honors and much acclaim and yet he often considered himself a failure success

failure

State or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, opposite of success

failure

a person with a record of failing; someone who loses consistently loss of ability to function normally; "kidney failure"

failure

lack of success; "he felt that his entire life had been a failure"; "that year there was a crop failure"

failure

Collapse or slippage of a large mass of bank material into a stream

failure

Omission; nonperformance; as, the failure to keep a promise

failure

Cessation of supply, or total defect; a failing; deficiency; as, failure of rain; failure of crops

failure

n The condition of not achieving the desired end objective The condition or being insufficient or falling short

failure

Want of success; the state of having failed

failure

The inability of a system to perform its required functions within specified performance requirements (IEEE 610 12-1990)

failure

inability to discharge all your debts as they come due; "the company had to declare bankruptcy"; "fraudulent loans led to the failure of many banks"

failure

Another name for a Candidate A Transition that is not a Nominal Transition Code: api/livingstone *

failure

Complete fatigue When you perform a given exercise to failure, you have done as many complete reps in strict form as you can, and can no longer complete the movement Failure is the point where the muscle group you are training is completely fatigued This is the most critical part of bodybuilding, for it is this condition of fatigue that initiates the growth process that ultimately makes the muscle stronger, and bigger

failure

The event in which any item or part of an item does not perform as previously specified NOTE: Failures may be classified as to such aspects as cause, degree, relevance, chargeability, dependence and responsibility

failure

The inability of a system or component to perform its required functions within specified performance requirements [IEEE90] A failure is characterized by the observable symptoms of one or more defects that have a root cause in one or more faults

failure

ultimate separation of metal parts due to applied loads i e it breaks

failure

{i} inability to succeed; lack of success; neglect; lack; non-performance; bankruptcy; downfall

failure

lack of success; "he felt that his entire life had been a failure"; "that year there was a crop failure

failure

The inability of an item, product, or service to perform required functions on demand due to one or more defects

failure

A situation where a program is in a state that was not foreseen by the programmer A program in such a state has a defect or is said to be defective A failure may or may not be detected by the program itself If, undetected, the failure just causes the program to do the wrong thing

failure

The temporary or permanent functional impairment of a component or device caused by physical, mechanical, chemical, or electrical damage

failure

a condition at which a structure reaches a limit state such as cracking or deflection; usually does not involve fracture since failing structures are deemed unsafe, therefore unusable, before they collapse

failure

the act of a mass wasting, failure is when a slopes material gives away and moves downslope; often occuring along a plane or planes

failure

deviation of the software from its expected delivery or service

failure

an act that fails; "his failure to pass the test"

failure

an item of equipment has suffered a failure when it is no longer capable of fulfilling one or more of its intended functions Note that an item does not need to be completely unable to function to have suffered a failure For example, a pump that is still operating, but is not capable of pumping the required flow rate, has failed In Reliability Centered Maintenance terminology, a failure is often called a Functional Failure Would you classify a planned equipment shutdown as a failure? Would you classify a routine equipment shutdown at shift change as a failure? Under this definition, the answer in the first case would be yes, but in the second case would be no The justification for the inclusion of planned shutdowns as failures is that a failure, as defined, causes a disruption to the desired steady-state nature of the production process, and therefore should, ideally, be avoided
