    This article presents an investigation into Failure Modes, Effects and Criticality Analysis (FMECA) in autonomous military underwater vehicles (Unmanned Underwater Vehicles – UUV). The challenges in adapting FMECA to underwater environments will be presented, considering the importance of identifying, evaluating and mitigating failures in critical equipment. Methodologies that are applicable in complex systems will be explored and processed, in this case equipment for an autonomous underwater vehicle. The applicability of FMECA integration in UUV life cycle analysis will be verified. With the demonstration and analysis of practical examples, it will be demonstrated how FMECA can improve the reliability, safety and operability of UUVs. This investigation demonstrates the importance of monitoring the condition of this equipment to ensure the success of UUV missions.

    Este artigo apresenta uma investigação sobre Failure Modes, Effects and Criticality Analysis (FMECA) em sistemas complexos, neste caso, veículos submarinos militares autónomos (Unmanned Underwater Vehícles – UUV). Serão apresentados os desafios na adaptação da FMECA a veículos autónomos em ambientes submarinos considerando a importância de identificar, avaliar e mitigar as falhas nos seus equipamentos e prever e planear intervenções de forma dinâmica. Será verificada a aplicabilidade da integração da FMECA na análise de risco de operação do UUV. Com a exploração e processamento de dados considerados, será demonstrado e analisados um caso de estudo para verificar como é que a FMECA pode melhorar a fiabilidade, a segurança a operacionalidade dos UUV. Esta investigação demonstra a importância da monitorização do estado destes equipamentos para garantir o sucesso das missões dos UUV.
