Latent failures may occur in components that experience ESD shocks, operational shock (as in being dropped), are operated outside of the specified temperature range, etc. The component may be damaged by the event, however, may initially appear to function just fine.
Because of the event, the component's life may be drastically reduced, abruptly failing with no apparent reason. Such a failure is termed a "latent failure", as in, the original event caused a failure that remained dormant for some period of time prior to presenting any adverse effects.
-----------------------------
Latent failure/error are normally the results or decisions taken by designers, manufacturers and senior management. These people are usually a long way removed from the system. However the consequences of their actions or decisions which have been dormant-perhaps for a long time-may have sudden and disastrous results. Rushed or incomplete preparation is another result.

Definition of latent error as used in computer programming?
A latent error is a hidden error that only shows up when a particular set of data is entered.
Will changes to the stimulus voltage alter the duration of the latent period?
Yes, changes to the stimulus voltage can affect the duration of the latent period in muscle contractions or neural responses. A higher stimulus voltage may lead to a more rapid depolarization of the cell membrane, potentially shortening the latent period. Conversely, a lower voltage may result in a longer latent period due to slower depolarization. However, the specific effects can vary depending on the type of tissue and its excitability.
What is the latent phase of labor?
During the latent phase, progress is usually very slow. It may take quite a while and many contractions before the cervix dilates the first few centimeters. Contractions increase in strength as labor progresses.
What term did Robert Merton use to describe human actions that hurt a system that are usually unintended?
latent functions
Are swamp coolers effective?
the water's latent heat of vaporization is being pulled from the air, the water pulls heat from the room to undergo a phase change.
Examples of software projects in which failure resulted in catastrophic consequences?
A combination of two failures lead to catastrophic event and the first failure is latent is there probability requirement for the latent failure?
What are the 3 failure types caused by esd damage?
The three failure types caused by ESD (electrostatic discharge) damage are catastrophic failure, latent failure, and parametric failure. Catastrophic failure results in immediate and permanent damage, latent failure causes delayed failure after the initial damage occurs, and parametric failure leads to a shift in the component's performance without immediate visible damage.
How do you define latent heat and What is its relationship to potential energy?
Latent heat is the heat required to achieve a change of phase - for example, to melt ice and convert it to water. As to the relationship with potential energy, latent heat IS a type of potential energy.
Define latent heat of fusion and latent heat of vapourisation?
Latent heat of vapourisation can be define as the rate by which water is heat to vapourise, it has a difference with evaporation because evaporation occurs directly when the water start heatin while vapourisation always start in a specific temperature
How does failure cause by latent defects affect logistics costs and combat capabilities?
They reduce a system's availability and increase support requirements

What is the heat stored in the atmosphere as a result of evaporation?
Latent
Use latent in a sentence?

What is the symbol for latent heat?
The symbol for latent heat is ( L ).
When was Latent Recordings created?
Latent Recordings was created in 1981.
