Designing and Selection of Reliability Based Sampling Plans

Abstract

Reliability of engineering system is very much essential in production industries. However accurate Reliability of a system or device is tedious if the number of components or items is large. But the decision has to be made whether to accept or reject a batch of items based on the reliability of the components and hence Reliability-based Sampling Plans indexed by operating reliability rate at the deflection point (RSP-RR) are developed using Exponentiated Loglogistic model. Tables and illustration are also provided for easy selection of the plan. The minimum sample size required for testing the sample units can be obtained using RSP-RR sampling plans.
