The Department of Veterans Affairs administers a system of benefits for veterans and their dependents. The Veterans Benefits Administration administers two main assistance programs for veterans with disabilities: (1) the Disability Compensation Program; and (2) the Disability Pension Program.
Instead of summing tolerances, as in worst-case analysis, statistical analysis sums dimension distributions. It is important to understand that the inputs values for a worst-case analysis are design tolerances, but the inputs for a statistical analysis are process distribution moments (e.g., standard deviation).Worst-case analysis (also called tolerance stack-up analysis) can be used to validate a design.Statistical analysis (also called variation analysis) can be used to predict the actual variation of an assembly based on the variation of the part dimensions.f the analysis involves part dimensions that are not parallel to the assembly measurement being studied, the stack-up approach must be modified since 2D variation such as angles, or any variation that is not parallel with the 1D direction, does not affect the assembly measurement with a 1-to-1 ratio.
STEEPLE analysis is a strategic planning tool. It can be helpful when planning the strategic positioning. SWOT Analysis is a popular alternative. STEEPLE is more advanced as it deals with macro-environmental external factors.STEEPLE offers an overview of various external fields.TEEP analysis is a similar strategic tool. STEEPLE and STEEP are almost identical versions of each other. Their common goal is to define strategies for the future or to understand the market. The best way to separate STEEPLE from STEEP is to say that it is a modified version.
