Due to advancements in technology and manufacturing capability, it is not uncommon that life tests yield no or few failures at low stress levels. In these situations it is difficult to analyse lifetime data and make meaningful inferences about product or system reliability. For some products or systems whose performance characteristics degrade over time, a failure is said to have occurred when a performance characteristic crosses a critical threshold. The measurements of the degradation characteristic contain much useful and credible information about product or system reliability. Degradation measurements of the performance characteristics of an unfailed unit at different times can directly relate reliability measures to physical characteristics. Reliability prediction based on physical performance measures can be an efficient and alternative method to estimate for some highly reliable parts or systems. If the degradation process and the distance between the last measurement and a specified threshold can be established, the remaining useful life is predicted in advance. In turn, this prediction leads to just in time maintenance decision to protect systems. In this paper, we describe techniques for mapping product or system which has degrading performance parameter to the associated classical reliability measures in the performance domain. This paper described a general modeling and analysis procedure for reliability prediction based on one dominant degradation performance characteristic considering pseudo degradation performance life trend model. This pseudo degradation trend model is based on probability modeling of a failure mechanism degradation trend and comparison of a projected distribution to pre-defined critical soft failure point in time or cycle.

Almost all existing software reliability models are based on the assumptions of he software usage and software failure process. There, therefore, is no universally applicable software reliability model. To develop a universal software reliability model this paper suggests the predictive filter as a general software reliability prediction model for time domain failure data. Its usefulness is empirically verified by analyzing the failure datasets obtained from 14 different software projects. Based on the average relative prediction error, the suggested predictive filter is compared with other well-known neural network models and statistical software reliability growth models. Experimental results show that the predictive filter generally results in a simple model and adapts well across different software projects.

본 연구는 소프트웨어 NHPP 신뢰성 모형 (Goel--Okumo 모형, 지연된 S-형태 신뢰성모형 및 레일리분포 모형)의 예측능력을 분석하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 예측 능력분석은 두 가지 요인으로 분석이 될 것이다. 하나는 사용 가능한 고장자료에 대한 적용성의 정도이고 다른 하나는 예측능력 정도이다. 각 모형의 모수 추정은 고장시간자료의 첫 번째 고장시점부터 80%가 되는 고장시간 자료를 사용하고 기법은 최우추정법을 이용 하였다. 모형의 예측 능력의 비교에 있어서는 가능한 고장 데이터의 마지막 20%가 되는 선택된 자료를 이용하였다. 이 연구를 통하여 소프트웨어 관리자들에게 소프트웨어 고장분석을 하는데 사전정보로 활용 할 수 있다.

The Non-homogeneous Poisson process is probably the most popular model since it can model systems that are deteriorating or improving. The renewal process is a model that is often used to describe the random occurrence of events in time. But both these models are based on too restrictive assumptions on the effect of the repair action. The Modulated Power Law Process is a suitable model for describing the failure pattern of repairable systems when both renewal-type behavior and time trend are present. In this paper we propose maximum likelihood estimation of the next failure time after the system has experienced some failures, that is, Mean Time Between Failure for the MPLP model.

많은 소프트웨어 프로젝트는 시험이나 운영단계에서 고장 시간이나 고장 수 데이타 보다는 그룹 고장 데이타 (여러 고장 간격에서 또는 가변적인 시간 간격에서의 고장 들)가 수집된다. 본 논문은 그룹 고장 데이타에 대해 가변적인 미래의 시간에서 누적 고장 수를 예측할 수 있는 신경망 모델을 제시한다. 신경망의 입-출력으로 무엇을 선택하고 어떤 순서로 훈련을 수행하느냐에 따라 신경망의 예측력에 영향을 미친다. 따라서, 신경망의 입-출력에 대한 11개의 훈련제도가 고려되었으며, 모델의 성능을 평가하기 위해 다음 단계 평균 상대 예측 오차 (AE)와 정규화된 AE (NAE) 측도에 의해 최적의 훈련제도가 선택되고, 다른 잘 알려진 신경망 모델과 통계적 소프트웨어 신뢰성 성장 모델과 비교되었다. 실험 결과, 가변적인 미래의 시간 간격에서 누적 고장 수를 예측하기 위해서는 신경망 모델에 가변 시간간격 정보가 필요함을 보였다.

A Baysian approach is proposed is estimating the mission failure rates by criticalities. A mission failure which occurs according to a Poisson process with unknown rate is assumed to be classified as one of the criticality levels with an unknown probability. We employ the Gamma prior for the mission failure rate and the Dirichlet prior for the criticality probabilities. Posterior distributions of the mission rates by criticalities and predictive distributions of the time to failure are derived.

In this paper, we apply NHPP model example to s/w process in order to get to know s/w reliability. The test is constructed by a test zig of commercial product loaded real embedded system s/w. It is established to s/w reliability prediction and estimation of real-time embedded system s/w. It is computed the prediction value of cumulative failures, the failure intensity, the reliability and the estimation value of MTTF, Failure Rate. To the more realization of high reliability in the real-time embedded system s/w, if the embedded system s/w is ensured to the test coverage and constructed to stable s/w process ＆ operating system, we can improve the performance and the reliability characteristic of the real-time embedded system s/w.

The creep resistance of geogrids is one of the most significant long-term safety characteristics used as the reinforcement in slopes and embankments. The failure of geogrids is defined as creep strain greater than 10%. In this study, the accelerated creep tests were applied to polyester geogrids at various loading levels of 30, 50% of the yield strengths and temperatures using newly designed test equipment. Also, the new test equipment permitted the creep testing at or above glass transition temperature($T_g$) of 75, 80, $85^{\circ}C$. The time-dependent creep behaviors were observed at various temperatures and loading levels. And then the creep curves were shifted and superposed in the time axis by applying time-temperature supposition principles. The shifting factors(AFs) were obtained using WLF equation. In predicting the lifetimes of geogrids, the underlying distribution for failure times were determined based on identification of the failure mechanism. The results confirmed that the failure distribution of geogrids followed Weibull distribution with increasing failure rate and the lifetimes of geogrids were close to 100 years which was required service life in the field with 1.75 of reduction factor of safety. Using the newly designed equipment, the creep test of geogrids was found to be highly accelerated. Furthermore, the time-temperature superposition with the newly designed test equipment was shown to be effective in predicting the lifetimes of geogrids with shorter test times and can be applied to the other geosynthetics.

This paper proposes strain-based failure model of A533B1 pressure vessel steel to simulate failure, followed by application to OECD lower head failure (OLHF) test simulation for experimental validation. The proposed strain-based failure model uses simple constant and linear functions based on physical failure modes with the critical strain value determined either using the lower bound of true fracture strain or using the average value of total elongation depending on the temperature. Application to OECD Lower Head Failure (OLHF) tests shows that progressive deformation, failure time and failure location can be well predicted.
