Evaluation of Performance Reliability Using Regression Models

Abstract

Performance reliability is the probability that a weapon will perform its prescribed function under given conditions of environment at some particular time. Performance reliability models are defined for continuous performance response variables. Procedures are then described for the evaluation of reliability with emphasis on the application of univariate and multivariate regression analysis to single and multiple continuous response variables, respectively. Point and confidence interval estimation methods for performance reliability are discussed, and a sample problem is presented illustrating some of the basic concepts and results.
