Combining Model Analysis and Experimental Test Data for Optimal Determination of Failure Allowables

Abstract

Objectives of this briefing is the discussion of the following issues: *Pooling various sources of information of possibly different pedigree: models, experiments and expert opinions. *Methodology for estimating percentiles of failure distributions and allowables. *Minimizing amount of data needed for certification process. *Accounting for various sources of uncertainty. *Demonstration of the approach with case studies. *Validation in controlled statistical environment.
