The FMMD methodology breaks the analysis down into small stages,
by making the analyst choose functional groups of components, which are then when analysed.
by making the analyst choose functional groups of components, to which FMEA is applied.
When analysed, we will have a set of symptoms of failure for the functional group.
We can then create a derived~component,
to represent the functional group.
We can use derived components to form `higher~level' functional groups.
This creates an analysis hierarchy.
This addresses the state explosion (where $O$ is order
of complexity) $O=N^2$ inherent in equation~\ref{eqn:fmea_state_exp}.

We can view the functional groups in FMMD as forming a hierarchy.
If for the sake of example we consider each functional group to
be three components, figure~\ref{fig:three_tree} shows

how the levels work and converge to a top or system level.
