RELIABILITY ANALYSIS FOR GEARS USING ACCELERATED TESTING THROUGH MONTE CARLO SIMULATION
Abstract
This paper presents a study about indicators of reliability (reliability function, non-reliability function, failure rate, probability density function, mean life) of gears using Monte Carlo simulation based on the time of failure. The technical systems´ increase of their automation and complexity degree and ask for in-depth research of their precision and reliability, as a warranty for increasing the level of quality and the competitiveness of those industrial products. The main advantages of the accelerated life tests reside in the decrease of the testing duration and of the allocated costs. As a result, the use of accelerated life tests represents a main and permanent concern of practitioners from the areas of mechanical products´ reliability
