Nomenclature
evaluation refers only to a single input and a single output for each
engine. Extensions to multiple inputs and multiple outputs are also
possible that involve recourse to weighting schemes. Such weighting schemes generally raise additional problems, however, and also
fall short in their ability to identify the sources and the amounts of
inef ciencies in the inputs and the outputs for each engine relative
to all other engines.
In this paper, we turn to another technique, data envelopment
analysis (DEA), as developed relatively recently in the operations
research and economics literature.2 After initial investigations by
Charnes et al.,3 DEA has been extended and applied in many different situations (see the bibliography in Ref. 2, which cites some
500 articles and publications). As we shall illustrate with an example involving turbofan jet engines, DEA provides an alternative
measure of overall ef ciency. It additionally relates each engine to
all other engines in the data set in order to identify a set of most
ef cient engines and uses this as a basis for estimating sources and
amounts of inef ciencies for each engine. En route to accomplishing this, it provides an optimal set of weights. This differs from
ordinary weighting schemes in that the weights are not imposed.
Instead, they are derived from the data. The weights also yield the
best (or highest) possible ef ciency values for each of the engines
being evaluated. Finally, all ef cient engines that are used to affect
each of these evaluations are also identi ed.
For an illustrativeexample, we use 29 turbofan jet engines. In this
paper, we rst describe the DEA methods and models to be used
and relate them to the engineering de nitions of ef ciency. Next,
we apply the DEA method to a class of turbojet engines used in
commercial aircraft. The input and the output criteria used in the
de nition of ef ciency are described and applied to a total of 29
engines. The results and interpretationsof the DEA evaluations are
then presented and contrasted with traditional ef ciency measures.
Finally, we provide extensions for consideration in the use of DEA
modeling for engineering applications.

which implies that the maximal value among the ratios of various
outputs to various inputs observed from all devices is regarded as
the maximum possible rating of any device o.
Extending Eq. (2) to accommodate Eq. (3), we have a model that
can be used to measure the relative ef ciency of each device, as
follows:
vyo vy j
(4)
h o = max
1 8 j, u, v 0
v ,u

Because the device o being evaluated in the objective is also part of
the constraints, it follows that 0 h o 1. Like E o in Eq. (1), for
any device o, we have a measure that can be applied successivelyto
each device with h o = 1 if the device o has full ef ciency. A value
of h o < 1 means that 1) ef ciency has not been achieved and 2)
1 h o measures the relative ef ciency shortfall (or inef ciency) of
the device being rated.
B.
We have provided a process for deriving a mathematical programming model as in Eq. (4) to evaluate the ef ciency of performances that we developed from the engineering de nition of ef ciency essential in a single input output situation. In fact, Eq. (4)
is a special case of DEA, which uses an approach to treat multiple
input multiple output extensions of the above development.
To continue with the case of multiple inputs and multiple outputs,
assume there are m inputs that each of n devices utilizes in order to
produce s outputs.Let x j and y j be column vectorswith components
that respectively record the amounts of each of the m inputs and the
s outputs for every one of the j = 1, . . . , n devices to be evaluated.
As in Eq. (4), we introduce the weights u and v associated with
inputs and outputs that are now column vectors of lengths m and s,
respectively.Then we utilize the following model to evaluate device
o with data (xo , yo ):
z o = max vT yo u T xo
v, u

Reference to Eq. (5) shows that it is a nonlinear (nonconvex) programming problem and hence is best used for conceptual clari cation. However, this is an ordinary fractional programming problem.
Hence it can be replaced with the linear programming equivalent by
means of the following change of variables5 :

with all variables being nonnegative, but with h o otherwise unconstrained, where so is an m-column slack vector of input excesses
and so+ is an s vector of output slacks for device o. See Ref. 5, which
initiated the eld of fractional programming.
Since z o 1 in Eq. (7), it follows that the conditionfor full (100%)
DEA ef ciency of any device o becomes z o = 1. In expression (8)
this condition becomes

with d(0, F0 ) d(0, F), where d is a Euclidean (or L 2 metric) distance function. This signi es the proportional reduction in both inputs that could be reachedby moving from F to the point F0 generated
from a convex combination of B and C.
The situation for G is slightly more complex. Here we have
d(0, G0 )
(12)
0 h G =
< 1
d(0, G)
with d(0, G0 ) < d(0, G), so both inputs of G could be reduced in the
proportion 1 h G to improve this performance without worsening
its output. This movement from G to G0 , however, does not imply an
end to the ef ciency improvement of G. Further improvement can
be identi ed from a comparison of G0 and C. Obviously C uses less
x 1 and no more x 2 than G0 in productionof the same one-unit output.
Thus the further improvement in moving from G0 to C represents a
removal of the nonzero slack s1G
.
The situation at A is differentin thath A = 1, which satis es one of
the conditions for ef ciency in Eqs. (9). However, the amount of x 2
utilized by A exceeds its corresponding value in B, which therefore
produces the same one unit of output with less x 2 and no more x 1 .
This difference in the x2 values is represented by s2A
, the removal
of which would position A at B.
As can be seen, all evaluations are effected relative to the frontier
representedby the solid lines connectingA to D in a piecewiselinear
manner. Movement from A to B or from D to C may be effected by
removing slacks that will improve one input without worsening the
other input. Only between B and C is such movement not possible.
This represents the ef cient frontier portion of the frontier. It is from
this portion of the frontier that all of the ef ciency evaluations are
made.
To put this all together, we move to the general situation by extending Eqs. (9) to the following expressions:
x o = h

We have chosen to focus our study on data for 29 turbofan jet engines being used on commercial airplanes. The planes on which the
engines are used vary in size and ight pattern (i.e. altitude, cruise
velocity, length of ight, etc.), but these characteristicsare not used
directly to determine the ef ciency of the jet engine. The data were
collected from several sources1,10,11 and a tabulated version is presented in Table 1. A total of three inputs and two outputs, described
below, were chosen to illustrate the DEA method. Although this
study is to serve only as an example of possible applications of
DEA to engineering situations, the inputs and outputs were chosen
to represent useful engineering parameters. Other inputs such as
cost, engine maintenance, etc. could also be included.

Outputs
The air ow is important for the propulsive ef ciency of a jet engine. Propulsive ef ciency increases as the air ow increases and/or
exit velocity decreases. The limiting factors on air ow are in the fan
(diameter and geometry) and with the number of compressorstages.

peers has the most similar size of actual input output data to that
of engine 1. This is a frequent result in which DEA suggests such a
predominantdevice as a benchmarkfor the device under evaluation.
Table 4 notes another situation in which h o = 1 for engine 13 but
ef ciency is not achieved because of nonzero slack in air ow. The
data of engine 13 are the same as those of engine 14 except for
air ow output values (i.e., air ow output of engine 13 = 3000, but
for engine 14 = 3120). Thus the peer group for engine 13 consists
only of engine 14, so that, as found from our DEA analysis, the data
show that engine 13 must increase its air ow output by the slack
amount of 120 ( = 3120 3000) in order to be ef cient.
All information on DEA ef ciency, including the peer groups
used to evaluate each of the 29 engines, are shown in Table A2 of
Appendix A. In fact, Tables 3 and 4 simply recapitulatethese results
in a different form for engines 1 and 13. Thus the two tables may be
used in tandem, if this is needed, and Table A2 may then be used to
guide attention when the recapitulation is wanted.
Witness,for instance,the case of engine 20 in Table A2. The value
of h o = 0.9941 might tempt one to regard the deviation from unity
as trivial. However, the slack values are far from optimal and, moreover, they have the largestof all valuesin their respectiveinef ciency
characterizations.Further inquiry might therefore be warranted. Directing attention to the peer group column, we nd that the largest
lambda value of the peer group members is k 16 = 0.9606, which is
associated with engine 16 (this engine is ef cient because it has a

BULLA ET AL.
Eq. (5), the relative ranking of all engines is the same as expected.
DEA considers weight of the engine as an input and air ow as an
output, and these do not show up in the engineering approach to
overall ef ciency. This is clear if engines 13 and 14 are compared,
as is done in Table 4. The engineering ef ciencies are exactly the
same, which would be expectedif air ow were not considered.Note
that nonzero slack for air ow in Table 4 is the only parameter that
differs between engines 13 and 14, and this relative inef ciency in
performance is not re ected in the engineering measure used.
To provide a different perspective,we turn to the scatter diagrams
and regressionsexhibitedin Fig. 2, where x, the explanatoryvariable
represents engineeringef ciency (g ) and y, the dependent variable,
represents the DEA evaluation (h ). Figure 2a suggests that two
engines, 3 and 19, might be characterized as outliers.
To check this possibility we return to Table A2 in Appendix A.
Moving to the peer group columns, we note that engines 3 and
19 are designated as self-evaluators (in DEA terminology). This
characterization can have a variety of causes. It can, for instance,
mean that special features are present that set such a self-evaluator
apart from all of the rest. Alternativelyit can mean that only the (one
or more) special features of the engine being evaluated are the cause
of this achieved score, although other aspects of its performance
are poor. The engineering ef ciencies calculated for engines 3 and
19 suggest that this may be the case here. In any event, DEA has
identi ed each of engines 3 and 19 as being evaluated by itself, viz.,
it is the only member of its own peer group.
This suggests that other analytical tools might well be brought
to bear in order to ensure that relative inef ciencies are not being
concealed in this manner. Further illustration is given in Appendix
B with an analytical tool, or envelopment map. See, e.g., Ref. 12 for
a use of these tools in association with the use of DEA to evaluate
maintenanceactivitiesin the U.S. Air Force Fighter Command. Here
we simply treat this as justi cation for regarding engines 3 and 19
as outliers and therefore remove these observations. The resulting
new regression is shown in Fig. 2b.
Evidently this removal improves the regression t as measured
by R 2 . Moreover, all parameter estimates are statistically significant in both regressions, and the increase in R 2 , going from
Fig. 2a to Fig. 2b, is also signi cant. Second, the t values associated with slopes 0.6171 and 0.8809 increases from t = 2.949 (with
p = 0.0034) to t = 4.553 (with p 0.000 + ).
Although statistical signi cance is achieved, both R 2 < 0.5,
which means that the explanatory power is low. To remedy this it
would be necessary to add more variables to these regressionsif the
engineering and the DEA results are to be brought closer together.
However, it is not clear how to augment the single output single
input engineering de nition. On the other hand, there is no reason
why more variables cannot be added to the DEA analysis, and this
would seem to be the way to go, rather than trying to reduce the
number of variables used in the DEA analysis (in order to bring it
closer to the engineering de nition).
