Adversarial Life Testing

Journal of the Royal Statistical Society Series B: Statistical Methodology, 1993
SUMMARY The life testing of items that exhibit a distribution of times to failure is undertaken for making decisions such as design qualification and reliability demonstration. In such contexts, procedures based on the Bayesian paradigm have assumed a common prior distribution of item reliability by both the consumer and the manufacturer.

Stage life testing [PDF]

Naval Research Logistics (NRL), 2019
AbstractIn progressive censoring, items are removed at certain times during the life test. Commonly, it is assumed that the removed items are used for further testing. In order to take into account information about these additional testing in inferential procedures, we propose a two‐step model of stage life testing with one fixed stage‐change time ...

Research on the self-healing failure characteristics and its protection methods of high-voltage self-healing capacitors

The Journal of Engineering, 2019
There are no reliable measures for identifying self-healing failures in capacitors. Therefore, the high-voltage self-healing capacitor have not been widely adopted in power systems yet. It is urgent to study new scheme to protect the self-healing failure

Historical traces and perspectival possibilities of traditional camel keeping in Carpathian Basin

Pastoralism, 2021
In this paper we have gathered and put into context all accessible sources regarding one-hump (dromedary—Camelus dromedarius) or two-hump Bactrian camels (Camelus bactrianus) in the Carpathian Basin. Reviewed sources and empirical statements have pointed

Natural language processing in toxicology: Delineating adverse outcome pathways and guiding the application of new approach methodologies

Biomaterials and Biosystems, 2022
Adverse Outcome Pathways (AOPs) are conceptual frameworks that tie an initial perturbation (molecular initiating event) to a phenotypic toxicological manifestation (adverse outcome), through a series of steps (key events).

Is increased hepatitis C virus case-finding combined with current or 8-week to 12-week direct-acting antiviral therapy cost-effective in UK prisons? A prevention benefit analysis [PDF]

, 2016
UNLABELLED: Prisoners have a high prevalence of hepatitis C virus (HCV), but case-finding may not have been cost-effective because treatment often exceeded average prison stay combined with a lack of continuity of care. We assessed the cost-effectiveness
