Failure rate is the frequency with which any system or component fails, expressed in failures per unit of time. It thus depends on the system conditions...

Annualized failure rate (AFR) gives the estimated probability that a device or component will fail during a full year of use. It is a relation between...

first-year (or for LAM, first-6-month) failure rates of less than 1%. With typical use, first-year failure rates are considerably higher, at 9%, due to...

manufacturers typically specify a mean time between failures (MTBF) or an annualized failure rate (AFR) which are population statistics that can't predict...

In clinical trials, the definition of respiratory failure usually includes increased respiratory rate, abnormal blood gases (hypoxemia, hypercapnia, or...

Aviation Administration (FAA) was quoted as stating turbine engines have a failure rate of one per 375,000 flight hours, compared to of one every 3,200 flight...

concept must be related to the dangerous failure rate of a system, not just its failure rate or the failure rate of a component part, such as the software...

Failure modes, effects, and diagnostic analysis (FMEDA) is a systematic analysis technique to obtain subsystem / device level failure rates, failure modes...
