The accelerated life tests of the catalytic gas sensor were performed at three different gas concentration conditions. From the test data, the power-Weibull model was estimated and the acceleration factor between test condition 25%LEL(Lowe Explosive Limit) and use condition 5%LEL was about 3 according to this acceleration model. Using this acceleration factor, life test specification for qualifying that B10 lifetime of the catalytic gas sensor meets the goal lifetime (5 years) was designed.

Accelerated degradation is concerned with models and data analyses for degradation of product performance over time at overstress and design conditions. Although there have been numerous studies with accelerated degradation theory in reliability, very few actually apply to parametric statistical analyses. This paper shows how to analyze degradation data, provides tests for how well the assumptions hold. Reel sensors, a sort of photointerrupters in home VCR, hive been tested, and least-square analyses are used to illustrate our approach. Tests for linearity of the performance-time relationship, dependence of the lognormal distribution, and the standard deviation on time are performed. The mean life of tested sensors is assessed at about 414,000 hours, and the Arrhenius activation energy of this reaction is concluded to be 0.39 eV as results.

고압호스 조립체는 건설기계, 선박, 항공기, 산업기계, 공작기계 및 자동차 등의 각종 유압장치에 널리 유압배관으로 사용된다. 이는 유연성이 필요한 부분에 유체동력($P^*Q$)으로 전달해야 함으로서, 고장이 발생할 경우는 유압시스템 전체가 작동이 불가능함으로서 신뢰성이 매우 중요한 부품이다. 가속 수명 시험 데이터는 와이블분포 분석을 통해서 형상 모수를 추종 하였다. 본 시험연구에서는 실제 가속수명시험 조건의 충격압력과 반복 굽힘을 변화시켜 시험시간을 감소시켰다. 가속수명시험 모형은 GLL(generalized linear)모형을 사용하였으며, 충격압력과 반복 굽힘에 대한 가속지수는 각각 6.64와 4.46으로 확인되었다. 또한 시험 결과에 대한 분석결과 형상모수(${\beta}$)는 6.19이며, 실제 사용조건인 35 MPa과 굽힘 반경 R100 mm를 적용하였을 경우 척도모수(${\eta}$)는 $1.035{\times}108$사이클로 확인되었다.

Accelerated and field degradation tests are performed for reliability assessment of an anticorrosive paint for steel structures. Test data were analyzed to obtain the degradation model and the life time distributions of the paint. A power law degradation model and lognormal performance distribution were used to predict the lifetime of the anticorrosive paint and the method of finding an acceleration factor is provided.

Hydraulic hose assemblies deliver a fluid power in various oil pressure equipment such as construction machinery, automobile, aircraft, industrial machinery, machine tools and machinery for ships. Also, they are widely used as pipes in oil pressure circuit. When we estimate their lifetime, it is essential to conduct an accelerated life test by choosing the factor that suits the usage condition of the test object since traditional test method for estimating lifetime under the influence of various external factors incurs hardship in terms of time and expenses. The objective of this study is to propose an acceleration model that takes both temperature and pressure without flexing condition into consideration. The lifetime is estimated by applying the proposed temperature-nonthermal acceleration model to the test data. And we compare the proposed temperature-nonthermal acceleration model and the accelerated life equation suggested by John(1994).

In a time when product development cycles are getting shorter and shorter, many companies are making efforts to develop products with high reliability in a short period of time, accelerated life test is widely used as a method to quickly evaluate reliability. Accelerated life test reduces the test life or the life of the product from the observed data by shortening the lifetime of the product or abruptly lowering the performance under the worse condition than the actual condition in order to shorten the test cost or the test time. In this paper, BL3640A-06P+RB35, DC12V model, which is used in the support device of an automatic rotation type digital signage, which display various information such as textures and images on a display screen in a public place or a commercial space, BLDC motors were subjected to a constant stress test and at the rotational speed of 1rpm, $180^{\circ}$ rotation and reverse rotation under actual use conditions, the stress was imposed on the rotating speed of 2rpm and the weight of the actual installed product from 22.2kgf to 10kgf were installed. The lifetime of the actual use environment condition is 23,545 hours and the rotation speed is accelerated. The life time of the acceleration condition with the additional weight is 1,380 hours. The acceleration factor is calculated as 17.06, the one year guarantee test day is 235 days to 14 days, of the period from 470 days to 28 days, and the third year from 704 days to 42 days. The test date of the BLDC motor was tested on the shortened test date, and the rotational speed and the current value were measured. It is found that there is no defect even if it operates as the test date corresponding to the specified one year warranty period and the 3 year accelerated life test which is experimented. Using the statistical technique of the regression analysis the expected time for the motor to defect to #4 samples was 20 years.

Pneumatic cylinder is widely used in the various industrial fields. Reliability Study of this field is very important part to the related companies. In this study, we want to predict the life of pneumatic cylinder using Cox (or proportional hazards) model. Used in biomedical applications, the Cox model can be used as an accelerated life testing model. We considered working pressure and temperature as stress factors. The statistical software is used to analyze and forecast the life data.

This paper presents accelerated life tests for Type I censoring data under probabilistic stresses. Probabilistic stress, S, is the random variable for stress influenced by test environments, test equipments, sampling devices and use conditions. The hazard rate, $\theta$ is a random variable of environments and a function of probabilistic stress. In detail, it is assumed that the hazard rate is linear function of the stress, the general stress distribution is a gamma distribution and the life distribution for the given hazard rate, $\theta$is an exponential distribution. Maximum likelihood estimators of model parameters are obtained, and the mean life in use stress condition is estimated. A hypothetical example is given to show its applicability.

Recently, as the number of years of operation has increased for more than 30 years, interest in evaluating the remaining life of major power facilities such as transformers and ultra-high voltage cables is increasing. In particular, the risk of failure is increasing because the underground transmission XLPE cable has been built since 1980 and has been operating in excess of 30 years of design life or close proximity. Therefore, it is necessary to develop an algorithm to evaluate the residual life of the XLPE cable considering the load to determine the risk of failure. Since load data is large amount of data, it is necessary to make the variable load information equivalent to the time unit first in order to calculate the remaining life of the system quickly. In overseas literature, transformers are reported to be standardized for variable load equivalent conversion formulas, but they have not been reported for ultra-high voltage cables. Therefore, in this paper, whether the equivalent conversion formula of a transformer can be applied to XLPE cables was reviewed through accelerated degradation tests under equivalent and variable temperature conditions, and considerations were studied when evaluating the remaining operating life of XLPE cables based on the experimental results.

It is necessary to both analyze root-cause of non-conformance of effective illumination time to the specification, and estimate the storage lifetime for 81 mm illuminating projectile stockpiled over 10 years. In this paper, aging mechanism of magnesium flare material due to long-term storage was supposed, and two-stage tests, pre-test and main test based on accelerated degradation tests were performed. Field storage environment of moistureproof was set up, and illumination times in the accelerated degradation tests for temperatures 60 and $70^{\circ}C$ were measured. Then, storage reliability of the projectile was estimated through analyzing the measured data and applying distribution-based degradation models to the data. The $B_{10}$ life by which 10 % of a population of the projectiles will have failed at storage temperature of $25^{\circ}C$ was estimated about 7 years.
