Abstract:

Reliability analysis based on product degradation data has become a research focus and a difficult topic in the field of reliability engineering. A two-phase nonlinear degradation model based on the Wiener process is proposed. It can reasonably consider the commonly encountered situation where a change point locates between the test time, and specific properties of each unit are shown regarding the change point. Then a maximum likelihood parameter estimation method is given. Reliability analysis and lifetime prediction methods are constructed. Finally, the reasonability and effectiveness of the methods are validated by a comparative analysis regarding high voltage pulse capacitors. The results show that the proposed model can describe the nonlinear time-varying properties illustrated by the degradation process more accurately than the multi-phase linear Wiener process model, and then more reasonable lifetime assessment results can be obtained.

Key words: nonlinear degradation modeling, multi-phase degradation, Wiener process, lifetime prediction
