Mathematica Templates for Sequential Reliability/Maintainability Test Design and Analysis

Abstract

This report documents the recent design and/or analysis of sequential reliability test plans for three systems. Also included in this report is a new, simulation-based method for designing a hypergeometric test plan for acceptance of maintenance troubleshooting procedures based on sequential sampling. The design and analysis of sequential test plans is computationally challenging thus implementation in software is essential. For this reason, each chapter and appendix of this report was written in Mathematica, a leading commercial mathematics software. The test designs and analyses contained within this report constitute a basic set of templates for sequential test planning in the future.
