Application of the stepping stress acceleration life test in the product storage life forecast
Abstract
Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to forecast the reliable storage life of a certain kind of equipment under the normal stress level.
Design/methodology/approach
Through the stepping stress acceleration life test and the failure mechanism analysis, this paper aims to confirm the stress level for the stepping stress acceleration life test of a certain kind of equipment and establish the data processing mathematical model and storage life forecasting method.
Findings
The stress level for the stepping stress acceleration life test of a certain kind of equipment is confirmed and the data processing mathematical model and storage life forecasting method is established.
Research limitations/implications
Availability of data is the main limitation affecting which model will be applied.
Practical implications
Useful advice for products' storage life forecasting.
Originality/value
The paper presents a new approach to product storage life estimation.
