Reliability and Life Testing Handbook is a complete guide and reference to product reliability testing.

Encyclopedic in scope, it covers all steps from planning and test selection to test procedure and results analysis. The presentation is systematic and carefully organized for reference. Hundreds of worked examples illustrate test procedures for various practical applications. Extensive reference data in appendices facilitates test work.

Features:

• Complete guide and reference to reliability testing
• Planning, test selection, procedures, and analysis
• Procedures for all tests clearly presented and illustrated by worked examples

Volume 2 of this comprehensive two-volume series includes the binomial tests of comparison and up-to-date information on Accept-Reject Tests, the Sequential Probability Ratio Test, Bayesian MTBF and Reliability Demonstration Tests, as well as other very important accelerated tests such as Arrhenius, Eyriing, Bazovsky, and Inverse Power Law.

Problems and reference sections are included in each chapter.
