Reliability-Growth Assessment, Prediction, and Control for Electronic Engine Control (GAPCEEC)

摘要

This Reliability-Growth Assessment, Prediction and Control for Electronic Engine Control (GAPCEEC) program was performed under contract F33615-81-C-2015. This 22-month program was formulated to study and analyze the reliability-growth phenomena obtained from electronic and hydromechanical gas turbine control equipment. This study consisted of a thorough review of the literature; an evaluation of five math models against four gas turbine control components having field and development experience; selection of the optimum reliability growth model; and development of a procedure for applying the optimum model to future development programs. Keywords include: Electronic Engine Control; Reliability Growth; AMSAA/Duane Model; Endless-Burn-In Model; Time-Series Analysis; Warranties; Reliability Prediction; and Assessment and Control.
