This paper presents system reliability growth analysis using actual field failure data. The primary objective of the system reliability growth is to improve the achievement of system reliability performance during system reliability demonstration, in order to achieve the predicted or contractually required system reliability commitment. An effective reliability growth model can be utilized to predict when the reliability target can be achieved based on previous reliability performance. In this paper, the system reliability growth analysis is illustrated using the Duane and AMSAA reliability growth models to determine applicability and aid in choice determination. The Duane model is a better choice for failure terminated reliability growth while AMSAA is a better choice for time terminated reliability growth. Comparisons of the Duane versus AMSAA model are carried out by conducting the statistical analysis on the observed field failures.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
