Abstract Dams are among the largest structures constructed by human. Their disasters result in numerous casualties and large material losses. The statistical analysis of the reasons for dam disasters was carried out by the International Commission on Large Dams.

Reliability analysis of two dissimilar parallel unit repairable system with failure during preventive maintenance [PDF]
The main purpose of this research work is to present a reliability analysis of a two dissimilar parallel unit framework under the presumption that a framework’s unit may also fail during the preventive maintenance (PM).

On the estimation of the mean time to failure by simulation
The mean time to failure (MTTF) of a stochastic system is often estimated by simulation. One natural estimator, which we call the direct estimator, simply averages independent and identically distributed copies of simulated times to failure. When the system is regenerative, an alternative approach is based on a ratio representation of the MTTF.

Flexible Boosting of Accelerated Failure Time Models [PDF]
When boosting algorithms are used for building survival models from high-dimensional data, it is common to fit a Cox proportional hazards model or to apply semiparametric least squares techniques.

Delayed failure of software components using stochastic testing [PDF]
The present research investigates the delayed failure of software components and addresses the problem that the conventional approach to software testing is unlikely to reveal this type of failure. Delayed failure is defined as a failure that occurs some

The COACH risk engine: a multistate model for predicting survival and hospitalization in patients with heart failure [PDF]
Aims: Several models for predicting the prognosis of heart failure (HF) patients have been developed, but all of them focus on a single outcome variable, such as all-cause mortality.

Is Mean Time to Failure (MTTF) Equal to Mean Time of Life for Unrepairable Systems? [PDF]
Abstract One of the most important reliability parameters is the mean time to failure (MTTF). It is widely accepted that the MTTF is equal to the mean time of life ET. This article shows that this is not necessarily true. Although for the most commonly used statistical distributions (such as exponential, Gaussian, chi-square, Fisher ...
