Spot Thermal Runaway Risk Before the Test

A hazard is not actionable until the failure path is visible. FMEA turns vague battery safety concern into a traceable chain. The method asks the team to separate what fails, why it fails, what happens next, how the team currently controls it, and where the next action should land.
