By applying stages of analysis to higher and higher abstraction

In order to get general equations with which to compare RFMEA with FMMD
|

we can re-write equation~\ref{eqn:rd} in terms of the number of levels

in an FMMD hierarchy. The number of components in is number of components

The number of components in the system, is number of components
