The Mathematics of Failure and Reliability
Abstract
This chapter focuses on the mathematical methods employed in analyzing product quality and failure data. These data are obtained through measurement, testing, and service experience with the objective of obtaining the most probable values of parameters that characterize quality control, failure rates, and projected lifetimes of components and devices. As we shall see, statistical analysis is part of all quality and yield assessments associated with the processing and manufacture of devices. In particular, the use of reliability mathematics and analysis in predicting the fate of products during service is a recurring theme of this book.
