description The extent of failure evaluation depends on the complexity and significance of electronic products. However, traditional failure mode and effect analysis (FMEA) has many shortcomings, which brings large difficulty to failure evaluating work. This paper uses the double hierarchy hesitant fuzzy linguistic term set (DHHFLTS) and the K-means clustering algorithm to improve the shortcomings of traditional FMEA. The DHHFLTS is a set of language terms based on the symmetry method and uniform language granularity. Firstly, we determine the product failure mode and set up an evaluation team after formulating an evaluation symmetrical language set. The psychological changes of the evaluators can be truly expressed by using the DHHFLTS. Secondly, the entropy weight method is used to calculate the weight of the evaluation members. The evaluation information of the evaluation personnel on the failure mode is aggregated based on the weight of the evaluation members. Then, the K-means clustering algorithm is used to calculate the distance between failure modes and each cluster center point by using the normalized weight of influencing factors and the evaluation distance of each evaluator. Finally, the evaluation of an electromagnet failure mode is taken as an example to prove the objectivity and practicability of the new method.
