This study presents a new accelerated test model for reliability analysis, combining system degradation and failure data. The model uses a Gaussian process to improve inference about system lifetime under stress.

Area of Science:

  • Reliability Engineering
  • Survival Analysis
  • Statistical Modeling

Background:

  • Modeling system degradation and failures simultaneously is crucial for accurate reliability assessment.
  • Existing methods may not fully integrate degradation paths with failure time data.
  • Accelerated testing is vital for predicting long-term system performance.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a general accelerated test model integrating degradation and failure data.
  • To provide a framework for inferring system lifetime using a continuous cumulative damage approach.
  • To explore specific Gaussian process models where degradation is influenced by acceleration variables.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized a continuous cumulative damage approach.
  • Employed a Gaussian process to model system degradation.

  • Developed a general accelerated test model combining failure times and degradation measures.
  • Investigated models where the Gaussian process drift depends on the acceleration variable.

    • Main Results:

    • Presented a unified model for analyzing both degradation and failure data.
    • Demonstrated the model's applicability with simulated and real-world data.
    • Showcased specific model variations for different degradation behaviors under acceleration.

    Conclusions:

    • The proposed accelerated test model effectively combines degradation and failure information for enhanced reliability inference.
    • The Gaussian process approach provides a flexible framework for modeling complex degradation patterns.
    • The study offers valuable tools for predicting system lifetime in reliability and survival analysis.
