Abstract:
This thesis presents the use of signatures within nonparametric predictive inference (NPI) for the failure time of a coherent system with a single type of components, given failure times of tested components that are exchangeable with those in the system. NPI is based on few modelling assumptions and here leads to lower and upper survival functions. We also illustrate comparison of reliability of two systems, by directly considering the random failure times of the systems. This includes explicit consideration of the difference between failure times of two systems. In this method we assume that

Assessing long-term rock stability is an important aspect in the analysis of slopes, dam and bridge foundations, and other infrastructure. Rock behavior over tens to thousands of years must be anticipated when predicting the performance of, for example, an underground containment facility for nuclear waste. At such long time scales, the time dependence of rock failure, typically ignored in short time scale analyses, has a significant effect and must be included in the analysis. Since time-dependent rock behavior is thought to be caused by the subcritical growth of microcracks, a time-depend

Survival-PLSTM uses a recurrent neural-network to model time-series data of a vehicle’s operational history, and outputs an approximated cumulative hazard function.

Abstract:
Failure time data analysis, or survival analysis, is involved in various research fields, such as medicine and public health. One basic assumption in standard survival analysis is that every individual in the study population will eventually experience the event of interest. However, this assumption is usually violated in practice, for example when the variable of interest is the time to relapse of a curable disease resulting in the existence of long-term survivors. Also, presence of unobservable risk factors in the group of susceptible individuals may introduce heterogeneity to the po

Examination of the strength of materials reveals that design life of components is not sufficiently flexible to realize SF, and design requirements can predetermine design life. This is

Wellbore stability is a critical issue when drilling through tectonically stressed and complex geological conditions. Understanding wellbore stability issues before a well is drilled enables better planning of the drilling operation and helps to avoid borehole failure.

Soft robots and particularly inflatable robots are of interest because they are lightweight, compact, robust to impact, and can interact with humans and their environment relatively safely compared to rigid and heavy traditional robots. Improved safety is due to their low mass that results in low-energy collisions and their compliant, soft construction. Inflatable robots (which are a type of soft robot) are also robust to impact and have a high torque to weight ratio. As a result inflatable robots may be used for many applications such as space exploration, search and rescue, and human-robot i

The progress of a unimolecular chemical degradation reaction is used in representing a component failure mechanism. The component is said to fail when the concentration of reaction product accumulates beyond an acceptable level. The process of accumulating reaction product is modelled as a Markov pure birth process which, in turn, is used in developing the failure time distribution. The model is analyzed under the assumption that the reaction rate is constant. Also, the initial state and the final state of the degradation process are assumed to be Poisson variables.

We have explored several deviations from the standard AFT model.

The prediction of time dependent failure at the interface of a thin film bonded to a substrate is considered in terms of a thermorheologically simple viscoelastic material. An initial investigation of stress distribution at the interface is carried out to understand the possible location and the mechanism of failure. Subsequently, a detailed analysis is developed to obtain not only the longitudinal stress component but also the lateral and shear stress components at the interface. Viscoelastic material behavior is included in the model to account for the stress relaxation behavior of the film.
