Reliability

Description:
Reliability:
Based on the historic failure details, characteristic life and distribution shape parameter can be
calculated, and reliability can be determined at a specific point in time.
The Weibull distribution can be used to model many different failure distributions. Given a shape
parameter () and characteristic life () the reliability can be determined at a specific point in time (t).

Conditional Weibull Distribution - Survival Table:

Given that an item that has survived to an age of current_age, the cumulative probability of failure up to
some future_time is given by:

where:
is the Weibull distribution shape parameter
is the Weibull distribution characteristic life

Input and Usage:

Input Data: Input data should be in json format and CYCLES is the column name.
CYCLES: it contains the cycle numbers.

Here we have two functions 1.Reliability and 2.Survival

Weib_reliability(self,data,shape,scale)
Arguments:
Data : input data here Cycles columns we are passing has in put
shape : Weibull Distribution calculated field

Reliability

scale : Weibull Distribution calculated field

weib_survival(self,current_age,future_age,shape,scale)
current_age : here we have to specify current age
future_age : here we have to specify the future age to predict the survival
shape : Weibull Distribution calculated field
scale : Weibull Distribution calculated field

Test Cases:
1. Boundary Value Condition Test Cases and Custom Messages:

please check reliable method, must be reliable or survival. If the entered method is not
available or spelling mistake.

Reliability

future_age must be greater than the current_age. if the entered future_age less than the
current_age.
Ages must be positive numbers. If the entered current_age and future_age are negative.
