Some statistical distributions,before examining field evidence. Perhaps the one used most extensively is the negative exponential distribution. We have already seen in section 4.4 how it can represent the variation of reliability with time for infinitely rough loading. In addition any period of constant failure rate can be repres

Presenting the 1974 James Clayton lecture to the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, which was intended to summarise eight conferences or symposia held by that body from the mid-sixties to the mid-seventies, the author concluded “the significant theme which has recurred o
