摘要

Accelerated Life Testing (ALT), the testing of systems under more severe environments than those experienced in actual use, is a standard practice used to reduce test time and cost. Increasing limitations on test sample sizes have now focused attention on the incorporation of Bayesian methods and Design of Experiments (DOE) in ALT. The former uses prior subjective input to offset the small sample sizes and the latter provides efficiency due to optimal test design.;The focus of this dissertation is the exploration of the robustness of Bayesian ALT designs under this new procedure. Specifically, designs constructed using the major univariate and bivariate time transformation functions with the Weibull and Exponential life distributions are analyzed. The Basic Sensitivity Theorem is used to characterize the optimal solution robustness. The general expression of the optimal design as a function of the perturbation of prior information is developed as is the general expression for the optimal pre-posterior variance.;The research shows that the Basic Sensitivity Theorem estimates provide a useful approximation of pre-posterior risk. Additionally, the pre-posterior risk is found to be robust though the optimal designs are not as robust.;Because DOE is model dependent, choice of a life length distribution or even its parameter values can influence the optimal test design. Within the Bayesian paradigm, selection of model parameters is based on subjective prior information. To date, literature which addresses robustness of Bayesian ALT designs with respect to prior information has centered on Normal distribution theory due to mathematical convenience in addressing the common DOE optimality criteria of minimizing the pre-posterior variance. Recently, however, an inference procedure for life length statistics has been developed for ALT using Linear Bayes Estimation. This procedure relies on the specification of a linear time transformation function for relating failures at severe environment to those at use environments and of the mean and variance-covariance matrix of prior parameters. Using this method, pre-posterior variance expressions may be developed for a wider class of life distribution used in ALT design; however, analysis of design robustness in these instances remains a difficult and unexplored problem.
