Function A function is whatever the asset is required to do. For example, the function of a truck might be to transport up to one tonne of freight at a maximum highway speed not less than 90 km/h. Each asset can have several functions but just one primary function. When failure mode optimization requires Isograph Availability Workbench, this attribute is mapped to the function description in AWB. See Also Functional Failure A functional failure is a state in which a physical asset or system is unable to perform a specific function to a desired level of performance. For example, a functional failure could occur if a truck cannot be started or cannot reach the minimum speed required of it.. See Also
