This paper deals with developing a general class of accelerated sequential procedures and obtaining the associated second-order approximations for the expected sample size and 'regret' (difference between the risks of the proposed accelerated sequential procedure and the optimum fixed sample size procedure) function. We establish that the estimation problems based on various lifetime distributions can be tackled with the help of the proposed class of accelerated sequential procedures. Extensive simulation analysis is presented in support of the accuracy of our proposed methodology using the Pareto distribution and a real data set on carbon fibers is also analyzed to demonstrate the practical utility. We also provide the brief details of some other inferential problems which can be seen as the applications of the proposed class of accelerated sequential procedures.

In this paper, the use of Bayes factors and the deviance information criterion for model selection are compared in a Bayesian accelerated life testing setup. In Bayesian accelerated life testing, the most used tool for model comparison is the deviance information criterion. An alternative and more formal approach is to use Bayes factors to compare models. However, Bayesian accelerated life testing models with more than one stressor often have mathematically intractable posterior distributions and Markov chain Monte Carlo methods are employed to obtain posterior samples to base inference on. The computation of the marginal likelihood is challenging when working with such complex models. In this paper, methods for approximating the marginal likelihood and the application thereof in the accelerated life testing paradigm are explored for dual-stress models. A simulation study is also included, where Bayes factors using the different approximation methods and the deviance information are compared.

사용조건에서 수명시험을 수행할 경우 시험시간이 많이 소요되므로 사용조건보다 가혹한 스트레스 조건을 추가하여 가속수명시험을 수행하면 시험시간을 단축시킬 수 있다. 수명에 영향을 미치는 스트레스를 선정하여 각 스트레스의 사용조건과 가속조건에서 시험을 수행할 경우 가속 스트레스간에 교호작용이 존재할 수 있다. 그러나 기존의 연구에서는 2가지 이상의 가속 스트레스를 부과하여 가속수명시험을 수행할 경우 교호작용을 고려하지 않은 경우와 가속 수명에 대한 모델식을 제시한 연구들이 대부분이다. 본 논문에서는 기계류 부품의 수명에 영향을 미치는 가속 스트레스를 선정한 후 교호작용을 고려한 시험계획에 따라 가속수명시험을 수행한 자료를 이용하여 가속 계수와 가속 스트레스간의 관계식을 산출하는 방법을 제시하고자 한다. 또한 본 논문에서 제시한 교호작용을 고려한 가속시험방법과 가속 계수를 산출할 수 있는 모델식을 이용하여 복합적인 가속수명시험 수행시 쉽게 적용하고 결과를 산출할 수 있는 기초가 될 것으로 기대된다.

Natural degradation of grounding-electrode in soil environment should be monitored for several decades to predict the lifetime of the grounding electrode for efficient application and management. However, long-term studies for such electrodes have many practical limitations. The conventional accelerated corrosion test is unsuitable for such studies because simulated soil corrosion process cannot represent the actual soil environment. A preliminary experiment of accelerated corrosion test was conducted using existing test standards. The accelerated corrosion test that reflects the actual soil environment has been developed to evaluate corrosion performances of grounding-electrodes in a short period. Several test conditions with different chamber temperatures and salt spray were used to imitate actual field conditions based on ASTM B162, ASTM B117, and ISO 14993 standards. Accelerated degradation specimens of copper-bonded electrodes were made by the facile method and their corrosion performances were investigated. Their corrosion rates were calculated to $0.042{\mu}m/day$, $0.316{\mu}m/day$, and $0.11{\mu}m/day$, respectively. These results indicate that accelerated deterioration of grounding materials can be determined in a short period by using cyclic test condition with salt spray temperature of $50^{\circ}C$.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the mechanical properties of precast concrete cured by accelerated curing methods such as, steam curing method and warm water curing method varing maximum temperature of curing along to the period of curing. Some specimens are cured by accelerated curing method(warm water curing method) and then deposited in the storehouse. The others are deposited in the storehouse directly. All of these are cured until being tested to compare these two group's mechanical characteristics for each period 3days, 7days, 28days. The goal of this comparison is to estimate the efficiency of accelerated curing method in the case of precast concrete stocked in the field or warehouse for a long term and to make guide line for factory manager to make a economical products of concrete of a good quality. We can conclude some guide lines 1) It is not efficient to cure concrete with accelerated method at higher than 80℃. 2) The continuing of curing period more than 36hr makes damage to concrete in using accelerated curing method. 3) The strength revelation of concrete cured by accelerated curing methods, added rice husk ash more delayed than OPC concrete done but the strength of maximum value is higher than OPC concrete. 4) It is not efficient to use accelerated curing method in the case of storing the products for more than 7days in the aspect of mechanical properties.

This study was performed to develop accelerated life test method of the wind-turbine gearbox using accumulated damage theory that used to model the fatigue of parts that receive variable load. The accumulated damage theory was introduced, and the estimation of life and calculation of accelerated life test time was illustrated. As the actual application example, accelerated life test method of the gearbox was described. Life distribution of the wind-turbine gearbox was supposed to follow Weibull distribution and life test time was calculated under the conditions of average life (MTBF) 140,600 hours and 99% reliability for one test sample According to the accumulated damage theory, because test time can shorten in case increase test load, test time could be reduced by 1.2 years when we put the load 1.2 times of rated load than 0.93 times of rated load that is equivalent load calculated by load spectrum of the wind turbine. This time, acceleration coefficient was 21.3. This accelerated test method was used to develop accelerated test method of gear reducer, gear and bearing as well as the industrial gearbox and it is considered to be applied comprehensively to mechanical parts the fatigue of which is happened by load or pressure etc.

유도탄은 일반적으로 양산 후 바로 사용하는 것이 아니라 장기간 저장을 거친 후 사용되므로 운용 신뢰도가 아니라 저장 신뢰도가 매우 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 가속노화시험을 통해 유도탄의 엔진 조립체 및 부품에 대한 저장 신뢰도를 평가하는 방법을 제시한다. 엔진 조립체의 시험은 실제 저장 시간과 등가한 가속 시험조건에서 시험을 수행한 후 각 부품의 노화 상태를 확인한다. 반면, 부품에 대해서는 가속 시험조건에서 주기적으로 성능노화특성을 측정하여 고장시간을 예측한 후 여러 가속 조건의 시험데이터와 가속모델을 이용하여 사용조건의 수명을 결정하는 시험을 수행한다.
