Overview of the Degradation Platform

In reliability analyses, the primary objective is to model the failure times of the product under study. In many situations, these failures occur because the product degrades (weakens) over time. But, sometimes failures do not occur. In these situations, modeling the product degradation over time is helpful in making predictions about failure times.

The Degradation platform can model data that follows linear or nonlinear ...
