reliability doe the proper analysis approach for life data
DESCRIPTION
Design of Experiment (DOE) has been widely applied on improving product performance. It is an important part of Design for Six Sigma (DFSS). However, due to its limitation on data requirement and model assumptions, it is not popularly used in life test. In this presentation, a method combining regular DOE technique with proper life data analysis method is presented. This method can be used to identify factors that affect product life and also can be used to optimize design variables to improve product reliability.TRANSCRIPT

Introduction Example
引例
Consider an experiment to improve the reliability of fluorescent lights. Five factors A-E are investigated in the experiment. A 25-2 design with factor generators D=AC and E=BC was conducted*.
Objective: To identify significant factors and adjust them to improve life.

Failure Time

Traditional DOE Approach
传统的DOE方法
Assumes that the response (life) is normally
distributed.
Treats suspensions as failures.
Uses the middle point of the interval data as
the failure time.
Problem: The above assumptions and
adjustments are incorrect and do not apply to
life data.

Complete Data: Example
完全数据例子
For example, if we tested five units and they all failed, we would
then have complete information as to the time of each failure in
the sample.
11
Right Censored (Suspended) Data: Example
右删失数据 (终止): 例子
Imagine we tested five units and three failed. In this scenario,
our data set is composed of the times-to-failure of the three units
that failed and the running time of the other two units without
failure.
This is the most common censoring scheme and is used
extensively in the analysis of field data.
12
Interval Censored Data: Example
区间删失数据: 例子
Imagine we are running a test on five units and inspecting them
every 100 hr. If a unit failed between inspections, we do not
know exactly when it failed, but rather that it failed between
inspections. This is also called “inspection data”.
13
Censored Data Analysis Example
删失数据计算例子100 pumps operated for three months.
One failed during the first month.
One failed during the second month.
Two failed during the third month.
What is the average time-to-failure?
You can’t answer this question without assuming a model for the data.

15Parameter Estimation:
Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MLE)
极大似然参数估计
Statistical (non-graphical) approach to parameter
estimation.
Given a data set, estimates the parameters that
maximize the probability that the data belong to that
distribution and that set of parameters.Constructs likelihood function as product of densities,
assuming independence.
Uses calculus to find the values that maximize the likelihood
function.
Has elegant statistical properties when the sample size is
large.
16
MLE Concept极大似然参数估计概念
Which model is more likely if two values are observed:
-3 and 3?
17
If T is a continuous random variable with pdf:
where 1, 2, … , k are k unknown parameters that need to be estimated,
and we conduct an experiment and obtain N independent observations,
T1, T2, … , TN, then the likelihood function is given by:
For a one-parameter distribution with a single parameter and data of
10, 20, 30, the likelihood of the function would be:

The logarithmic likelihood function is:
The maximum likelihood estimators (MLE) of 1, 2, … , k are obtained
by maximizing either L or .
By maximizing , which is much easier to work with than L, the
maximum likelihood estimators (MLE) of 1, 2, … , k are the
simultaneous solutions of k equations such that:

Combining Reliability and DOE: Life-Factor Relationship
可靠性和可靠性和DOEDOE的结合的结合:: 寿命因子关系寿命因子关系
The graphic shows an example where life decreases when a factor is
changed from the low level to the high level.
It is seen that the pdf changes in scale only. The scale of the pdf is
compressed at the high level.
The failure mode remains the same. Only the time of occurrence
decreases at the high level.
25
Life-Factor Relationship Simplify: Life Characteristic
简化寿命-因子关系:寿命特征量
Instead of considering the entire scale of the pdf, the life characteristic
can be chosen to investigate the effect of potential factors on life.
The life characteristic for the 3 commonly used distributions are:
Weibull: Lognormal: Exponential: m
26
Life-Factor Relationship
寿命-因子关系
Using the life characteristic, the model to investigate the effect of factors on life can be expressed as:
Note that a logarithmic transformation is applied to the life characteristics of the Weibull and exponential distributions.
This is because and m can take only positive values.

When using the Weibull distribution for life, the residuals from the
life-factor relationship should follow the extreme value distribution
with a mean of zero.

From the results, factors A,B, D and E are significant at the risk Level of
0.10. Therefore, attention should be paid to these factors.
In order to improve the life, factor A and E should be set to the high
level; while factors B and D should be set to the low level.
