There seems to be some principles to add to the frustrations of the mortals like us…

There has been a lot of studies on how and why things go wrong like this

whe

One of them is a mathematical theory

THEORY OF CHAOS…

THEORY OF CHAOS…

the world around us is the result of complete chaos

everything that is taking place around us is totally out of chance only

small changes can have a large consequence

Now that things went wrong, what to do?

1. SCREAM HELP HELP!

OUR APPROACH…!Conduct feasibility studies…

Prepare plans

Arrange logistics

LAST BUT NOT THE LEAST conduct Poojarequesting the Almighty to prevent any possible miss-happening…

But there’s another interesting approach

DEFENCIVE DESIGNING

an approach that evolved out of a law called

MURPHY’S LAW

whe

Murphy’s Law

Year 1949

Edwards Air Force Base, California, USA

Project MX981: project designed to see how much sudden deceleration a person can stand in a crash

Project Engineer Capt. Edward A. Murphy finds one of the instruments wired worng

Murphy’s Law

Mruphy screams at the technician

"If there is any way to do it wrong, he'll find it."

Murphy’s assistant adds this to a checklist

Spirit of Murphy’s Law…

"If anything can go wrong, it will”

Lot’s of people used their heads to derive many more conclusions

•"If there's more than one way to do a job, •and one of those ways will result in disaster, •then somebody will do it that way."

Spirit of Murphy’s Law…

"If anything can go wrong, it will”

Lot’s of people used their heads to derive many more conclusions

•If there is a possibility of several things going wrong,

•the one that will cause the most damage will be the one to go wrong

"If anything can go wrong, it will”

This became the parameter for designing and checking each and every step of the project

Result : one of the most efficient shock protection systems developed

Aerospace manufacturers picked it up for their daily use…

whe

CHAOS theory suggests…

Despite all our planning, events in our lives are just a matter of chance

99.99% possibility that something you expect will not happen that way

Going wrong is integral to the nature of the universe

whe

ings

wro

ng… Moral of the story!!!

MURPHY’S Law suggests…

If anything simply cannot go wrong, it will anyway.

Left to themselves, things tend to go from bad to worse

If you want something bad enough, chances are you will not get it

whe

n th

ings

go

wro

ng… PERHAPS the productive approach…

Accept that ‘going wrong’ is an integral part of each and every breath we take

So let’s not to leave the ball on Almighty’s Court…

Explore all aspects that can go wrong at each and every step

And do the best we can to prevent them…

and to consider murphy’s philosophy

Smile todaytomorrow will be worse!
