To generalise, we may need to consider $N$ simultaneous
failure modes when analysing a functional group. This involves finding
all combinations of failures modes of size $N$ and less.
The Powerset concept from Set theory when applied to a set S is the set of all subsets of S, including the empty set and S itself
The Powerset concept from Set theory when applied to a set S is the set of all subsets of S, including the empty set

and S itself.
In order to consider combinations for the set S where the number of elements in each sub-set of S is $N$ or less, a concept of the `cardinality constrained powerset'
is proposed and described in the next section.
